Question

State any five situations when an opponent player can get a free hit.

Answer 1

A free hit is awarded to the opposing team:

1. In the event that a player violates the 23-meter zones.
2. In the event that an attacker commits an offence within the 23-meter zone that their opponents are defending.
3. When a defender unintentionally crosses the line outside the circle but still stays inside the 23-meter zone, they are defending.
4. An opponent team is given a free hit when a foul is committed on the field, and it must be taken close to the location of the infraction.
5. The defensive side will receive a free hit that can be taken anywhere on the 16-yard line if the attacking team fouls in the shooting circle.
