  1. Before a point can be scored, the ball must be completely inside the opponent's 45M line.
  2. The attacking team must signal an intention to score a point before bringing on a chipping ramp or a kicking figure such as the Subbuteo corner kickers. However shots which are chipped without the aid of a ramp or kicking figure do not need to be declared in advance.
  3. Bringing in the chipping ramp or kicking figure counts as one of the players four flicks in possession. If that is the figure’s fourth flick then he would be unable to take the shot.
  4. Once the kicking figure or ramp is in play the defending team must be allowed a blocking flick.However that blocking flick may not be used to shoulder tackle the opponent.
  5. Kicking figures can be used subject to the following restrictions:
  1. If a kicking figure is used, he can only replace the figure in possession;
  2. The kicking figure must not be positioned in such a way as to move a defending figure, although it may make contact with it.
  3. If the figure has no more flicks left, the kicking figure must be replaced with the original figure. Another figure must take the next flick.
  • Following the kick, the kicking figure must be replaced immediately with the original figure, or the chipping ramp should be removed from the filed of play
  • The ball must remain in its original position before the kick is taken. If the ball goes over the crossbar between the uprights, a point is awarded to the attacking team.
  • If the ball goes wide or drops below the crossbar and into the goal without touching a legitimate attacking player or a defender, a goal kick is awarded to the defending team.
  • Goals can only be scored when the ball is struck from inside the 20M line. However, a figure outside the 20M line can score a goal if the ball is already inside the 20M line.
  • For a goal to be awarded, the whole of the ball needs to cross the goal line beneath the cross bar.
  • Any ball flicked from anywhere on the pitch by either side into their own net counts as an own goal.
  • Following a goal or a point, the defending team takes possession of the ball. This flick is taken from the defending team's 20M line.
  • Players can be repositioned for this flick as with goal kicks (see Rule 5) with the exception that no figure can be behind the 20M line of the side taking the kick-out.
