2011 Rules & Interpretation

From Al Blau  5/11/11

2011 Modified Rule - Stalling In the last 2-minutes of a Modified Game the team that is ahead must be given the stalling warning to get it in and keep it in. Remember, there are no counts at this level so the 10-second count cannot be used. If the team that is ahead is just running the ball around above the goal without making an attempt to attack the goal they must be given the stalling warning. If they are being closely played then you can allow play to continue. If, however, they are not being played, or are being played loosely, and the team still does not make a legitimate attempt to go to the goal area, blow the whistle, delay of game signal, and award the ball to the offended team.
