Team A is leading in the last two minutes, but has a player in the penalty box, thus they are not required to keep the ball in the attack area.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
In a game, if Team A is leading in the last two minutes and has a player in the penalty box, they are still required to keep the ball in the attack area. This is because having a player in the penalty box does not exempt a team from the rules of the game. The team must continue to play and maintain possession of the ball in the attack area to prevent the opposing team from having an opportunity to score. Therefore, the statement "Team A is not required to keep the ball in the attack area" is false.Rate this question:

-
A2 is motionless but has his crosse extended away from his body.
-

-
Team A gains possession.
-
Team B gains possession.

The other options would result in a whistle being blown: if Team B gains possession, it indicates a change of possession and play would stop; if Team A commits a foul, it would result in a whistle and a change of possession; if neither team gains possession after several seconds, it suggests a jump ball situation and play would be stopped.Rate this question:
