A keeper cannot take out an opposing player. I've seen keepers get Red cards for it.


Absolutely wrong. A keeper has every right to slide into a charging field player with the ball in the box. As long its going for the ball and cleats down its totally legal. Ive seen many a striker helped off the field by a coach because he was "taken out" by the keeper.


And the next time a keeper comes out and low their head may be introduced to a field players knee. If a keeper purposely came to "take me out" I'd gladly take the red card in retaliation later.


Stay out of my box or maybe next time I defend a corner I may miss the ball and break your nose trying to punch it out. Now step off pretty boy punk.

NO they do not.

They must get to the ball first.


I think that's what PP possibly meant but forgot to add. Regardless, no special rules applies to goalies when they don't have possession of it in their hands.

I have been concerned about "charging the goalie" since my son was a GK through college. I remember a time when he was of middle school age and playing an away game at tony Darien, CT. The father of a Darien player was very vocally egging on his son to run through my son. After the game I followed that father to his car and confronted him.

No idea about kids soccer but when I played HS soccer (otherwise known as football) in England, goalies are treated just exactly like the other players on the pitch when the goalie doesn't have the ball in his hands or making a play for the ball (to catch/kick/head). Just like how another player can't recklessly slide tackle another player. However, if the goalie has the ball in his hands, you may not impede his progress or make any body contact with him. But I've seen instances where a player snuck up behind the goalie and headed the ball out of his hands--no foul called. Once, during live play, if the goalie puts the ball on the ground to dribble, it's fair game until he pick it back up.

Your goalkeeper needs to have sure hands, otherwise he’s just inviting the charge. You’re not allowed to target them obviously, but if the ball is loose and the forward is just trying to nick it? All in the game.

Love this teammate right here. The real unsung hero. Goalie is the hardest position to replace. Just like a QB in American football. Teammates have to protect their anchor.

Keeper dad.

Already seen my child knocked over as he was punching the ball out and then not allowed up when the ball was played back in.

And he's been run into with the ball in his hands after catching a corner.

Goals for the opponent both times. It's frustrating but it happens.

It was this way when I was a kid too, it is not enforced that way anymore. If you are making a fair play on the ball it’s fair game to run into the goalie. Once the goalie has possession then you cannot do anything to him until he sends the ball away.

The details are when does he have possession and was the contact with the goalie a fair play on the ball.

12.23 CHARGING THE GOALKEEPER Referees must carefully observe any charge against the goalkeeper and call as an infringement of Law 12 only those charges which are performed carelessly, recklessly, or with excessive force (direct free kick), are performed in a dangerous manner (indirect free kick), or prevent the goalkeeper from releasing the ball from the hands (indirect free kick). Charging the keeper who is in possession of the ball must be considered an offense because, by definition, the charge cannot be for the purpose of challenging for control of the ball (see Advice 12.16). A goalkeeper can be otherwise legally charged if the ball is not in the goalkeeper’s possession (see Advice 12.16) but is being played by the goalkeeper in some other manner (e. g., dribbled at the feet, headed, etc.).

To sum it up: The goalkeeper in possession of the ball AND preparing to put it into play may NOT be charged or otherwise interfered with. However, the goalkeeper may be charged FAIRLY when both the ‘keeper and the opponent are striving for possession of the ball.
