Proposal 66: 14B.7.2 6.5 M Clarification III (Execution of 6.5 m) [ Revision 1 ]
Committee: HockeySubmitted on 2017-01-07
Status: Passed on January 22, 2017
Background
In the associated discussion a kind of technique how to execute a 6.5 m could not find a majority.
But it was clear to everybody in the hockey committee that the execution of a 6.5 m in contrast to a free shot is direct. In accordance with the execution of a free shot the player may touch the ball only once. These clarifications should be added to the rule.
Proposal
14B.7.2 6.5 M
Old:
" ... After the Referee’s whistle the goalkeeper must ride the unicycle freely and not rest on the goal. If no goal is scored, ..."
New:
" ... After the Referee’s whistle the goalkeeper must ride the unicycle freely and not rest on the goal. The 6.5 m is direct. The player executing the 6.5 m may only touch the ball once. If no goal is scored, ..."
Body
In the discussion it was outlined that in contrast to a free shot a 6.5 m is direct. I added this to the proposed text as an additional clarification because it is missing in the rules.
