elhombrecito Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 It's for penalty kicks. Players aren't allowed inside it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percy Parrot Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 a free kick cannot be awarded within it I believe- if foul inside it the ball is moved to the edge. Also- for penalties players must not stand inside it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potbelly Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 I thought it was for putting the ball in after someone had gone in-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mad Mal (YTFC) Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 The "D" is a 10 yard arc from the penalty spot. Penalties are essentially a direct free kick, hence players have to be 10 yards from the ball. Unusually, in this instance, this also applies to the team awarded the spot kick.

Ronnie Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 It is to keep players ten yards or whatever it is in metres from the penalty spot, when a penalty is to be taken no other purpose at all, a free kick can be awarded within it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudgeRed Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 The "D" is for when a penalty taker is getting ready to take his PK no other player can obstruct him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave L Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 Anybody else want to add the same identical answer to this question? OK Matty, cheers. It's to make sure that all players are at least ten yards from the ball when a penalty is taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percy Parrot Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 ...... but is Percy right with his first statement! a) I think I am wrong- someone further up said that they can be awarded inside the D. I can't really remember where I heard that from- it sounds wrong when I think about it- but not too sure. b) when will you, Grahamb, find the '?' on your keyboard!?!
