Players need to keep the ball moving without holding or trapping it.
-
Defenders will run in front of the flying or rolling ball and try to block it from advancing.
-
Each team has a goalie guarding its side of the goal. When the ball is inside the key, only goalies are allowing to touch it.
-
If another player touches it in the key, the other team gets a penalty kick.
