  2. Introduction Goalball has a sport involving your team and is played for the disabled that is blinded. The sport was invented in 1946 to help in effort to help other World War 2 veterans visually impaired. It was turned into a Paralympic sport in 1980. Many people all around the world train for this sport, especially in the United States in America. Rules • Game Time - A regular Goalball game is 20 minutes, consisting of two 10 minute halves. There is a 3 minute half time, in order for the teams to switch ends. • Time limits - Upon receiving control of the ball, a team has only 10 seconds to throw the ball back at the opposing team. If not, it is considered a team penalty. • Throwing - The ball must be rolled on the floor. When throwing the ball, it must touch the floor before the over throw line or it is considered to be a high ball. This would constitute a penalty and nullifies any goal scored from that throw. So keep in mind, that the ball must be bowled or rolled along the floor rather then thrown.

When stopping the ball, some part of the players body must be touching the team area or it is called: Illegal defence and constitutes a penalty. • Play - The audible command "PLAY" must be called by the referee to start or restart the game. After any official stoppage in the game, "PLAY" must be called to restart the game. For example: the start of the game, after an out of bounds ball, a blocked out ball, a penalty situation, or a Goal. • Goal - A goal counts when the ball passes completely over the 9m back(goal) line of either team area. It is a goal no matter, how it crosses the line, if it was thrown by the opposing team, and or thrown or carried over by your own team members.
