[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You this all the time.  Someone gets fouled and a kid from the other team runs up to the ball to prevent the team from a quick restart.  That is a yellow card. Rarely given.[/quote]

Yeah but isn't it the referees job to determine how far ten yards is? As long as the player doesn't touch the ball he can ask the referee to mark off the 10 yrds so he knows far it he has to be. [/quote]  I'm talking about deliberately running up to the ball, not standing at 8 yards thinking he's at 10.  A player knows that it's 10 yards.  It's delaying the restart of a game.  Usually a ref gives a warning but doesn't have to.[/quote]

Im with you on that. I still think its grey area loophole in the rule. The player can stand 2 yrds away and ask the ref for for the proper yardage. I agree not very sportsman like but can be used a great tactical move occasionally. The defender has the right to ask the ref to mark off the ten yards putting the onus on the ref to determine. I agree the way its written its a delay of game . I also think its hard to enforce [/quote]

It's very easy to enforce.  The referee blows his whistle and pulls out his yellow card.  Whether or not people will whine is a different story.[/quote]
