The footwork rule explained What the rule book says: A player can receive the ball:
Note: Your landing foot is considered to be the first foot in which you land and can be lifted but not replanted whilst you have possession of the ball. Your other foot may move any number of times in any direction - but taking into account the 3 second rule. You may take a step in any direction, lifting your landing foot and balancing on your other leg. Footwork will be penalised if you re-plant your foot before releasing the ball during a pass or shot. More from the rule book: Footwork in the centre circleThe footwork rule still applies in the centre circle. As soon as the Centre steps into the circle, their leading leg becomes their landing foot and the footwork rule then applies. That is, if they lift or move their landing foot and place it back down again, a free pass will be awarded to the opposing team due to footwork.
