Solution
- The ball is allowed to be lifted in the air as long as the referee does not consider the play to be “dangerous.”
- The referee will make that call if the ball could potentially hit or injure another player. The general rule is that the ball should not be lifted above the knee within five meters of another player.
- An exception to this rule is when the ball is raised by using a scooping or long-pushing action of the stick or when there are no players in the same proximity as the ball. The ball cannot be hit into the air unless it is a direct shot on goal
