[ayso45-refs] Goalkeeper handling in penalty area

[Alice & Stan Chow]

it shouldn't be a foul.  It's common that a goalkeeper uses a foot to stop
an incoming ball, dribbles it, and then picks it up.  In this case, he
didn't dribble but kicked forward.  He didn't use his hands to touch the
ball before and after the kick.

 All,
  Here is an interesting situation that occurred at a U10B game last week
where I was AR.
   The attacking team kicked a long shot from outside the penalty area.  The
goalkeeper decided to kick the ball instead of picking it up but didn't make
a clean kick and the ball remained in the penalty area.  Then the goalkeeper
ran up and picked up the ball before putting it back into play.  The Ref
called the foul for a teammate (goalkeeper) kicking the ball back to the
goalkeeper and awarded an indirect kick to the opposing team.  After the
game, the ref team discussed and agreed with the call but thought we would
share it for further discussion.  There were no questions/challenges from
the teams.  The area that is confusing is that the goalkeeper's original
kick was not intended to himself but resulted from poor execution of the
kick.  How would others interpret this?
  Regards,
  Ben
