== Rule 7 Clinic ==
Penalty Enforcement
* Who's in the box, who gets the ball? where to start?
* Technical Fouls - You can never serve time if your team has the ball and you commit a technical foul
* A goal scored will wipe out all flags down for technical fouls

Who's in the box?
* Loose ball technical fouls
* There are only two times when you can serve time on a loose ball
** 1- The other team commits a personal found immediately after the foul
** 2- If there is already a flag down against the team that commits the loose ball foul


* Personal Fouls
** You will always service time if you commit a personal foul
** A goal scored does not wipe out the foul

* If a player commits multiple fouls and one of them is non-releasable, he must serve the non-releasable first.
* If a team is man up and scores the personal fouls are released, unless its a non-releaseable

* Flag Down denotes posession
** If the ball is loose flag down denotes posession

* Rule 7.2(d)
** All penalties that occur between when the first flag is thrown and the whistle is blown to resume play, all common penalty time shall be non-releasable

===Who gets the ball===
* If multiple fouls on both teams, follows rules 7.6
* If fouls on both teams, the team with less total penalty time gets the ball regardless of sequence
* If the time is equal, the team that had the ball keeps the ball. The ball restarts where it was when the whistle was blown.
* If the fouls are on both team, they are dead ball, it goes by sequence. The ball restarts according to the last foul
* If live ball fouls and dead ball foul it goes to the team that didn't commit dead foul

===Where does it start===
* 7.3c - after penalty enforcement, the offense can never restart in the offensive box
* Fouls on one team only, goto the offensive side of the field
* Live ball fouls on both teams, start where the ball is
* Dead ball fouls on both teams, the restart will move to the offensive end of the team that will get the ball
** If the fouls are dead the restart is live or Dead Ball-Dead Center
