How can a goalie have a handball in soccer?

if a teammate passes it to him... but what if its a corner kick and a defender heads a ball and he gets it, does it have to be out of the box......?|||What you are referring to - the team mate passing the ball to the goalkeeper - is known as a back-pass not handball.





A back-pass occurs when an outfield player kicks the ball straight into the keeper's arms. It is one of those little rules to keep the game interesting, much like the offfside rule stops goal-mooching.


You may notice that players tend to head the ball to the keeper to keep it out of danger, because this way, the keeper is allowed to catch the ball without foul.





If there is a corner kick and the goalie collects the ball after it leaves a member of his own team, be it via head, foot or groin, he would not be penalised for a back-pass, but recognised rightly so for what he is doing: defending his goal.





Any keeper out of the box during a corner kick that his team is defending would unlikely recieve a back-pass unless the rest of the team defended corners from the centre circle, in which case, yes he would be fouled for handball. He would most likely get a yellow card and his P45.|||Any time the goalie touches the ball with his hands outside of his crease, it is a handball.|||The only way a goalie can have a hand ball is if he catches the ball outside of the penalty box|||If he touches the ball (with his hands) anywhere outside the 6 yard box, its a handball.|||if he handels the ball outside the box or if he tries to handel the ball his team mate kicked back to him even if he is in the box if the his team mate heads the ball back he is allowed to catch or handle the ball|||if he grabs the ball out side the 18 feet line|||it's not a handball if a teammate passes it back to him- then it's called a passback.

Oldham Athletic had their goalkeeper sent off on Sunday for handling outside his area


In the box he can pick up a ball from a header or chest down from one of his own team but not a pass back this is to try to stop time wasting.|||if a goalie touches the ball with his hands outside the penalty box, then it's a handball.|||if a teammate passes the ball back with his feet the goalie can not pick up the ball with his hands, as years ago there was to much deley, now if his owner players uses his head or chest the ball back to the goalie he can pick it up with his hands, so to answer the question if on a corner kick your defender uses his head the goalie can pick up the ball with his hands|||Anything out of the penalty box is a handball for the goalie.|||If the goallie picks up the ball with his hands after it is kicked to him by a team mate it is a handball and is penalized with an indirect free kick from where the goallie was when he picked the ball up. However a team mate can pass back to his goallie using either his head, knee or chest.


Also, if the goallie picks up the ball outside the pennalty area ( 16 yards from goal, the outer goalbox), its a handball and penalized with a direct free kick and a yellow card.|||Outside the penalty area (18 yard box).|||High Balls - Catching Above Head





The basic position of the hands resembles the letter "W". If the hands are too small to keep thumbs together and secure the ball, then open up the thumbs to get fingers and palm to control it.





Medium High Balls - Catching Chest High





The basic position of the hands resembles an inverted "W", with the little fingers touching. The thumbs and palms put pressure on the ball while the fingers bend to form a "basket".





Medium High Balls - Catching Stomach High





The basic position of the hands resembles the chest high catch, however the hands are a bit more underneath the ball to cradle it into the stomach.





Low Balls - Catching Between Knees And Ground





Same hand position as for medium high balls. You need to drop both (or at least one) knees to the ground as you catch the ball to get body securely behind ball.





Diving - Catching While Moving Horizontally





The concept of the "W" still applies. You do want to make sure that the hand closest to ground provides a "backstop" for the ball while the other puts pressure from the top.
