RULE 9 - PENALTIES
Penalty 4. If the defender in goal blocks the ball with his mallet, body or horse, or plays a rolling ball, the ball becomes live for both teams and all Right of Way rules apply. If the ball is hit wide of the goal and the rebound is within 25 yards of the end wall, only the fouling team may play the ball, but it must do so immediately, and no member of the fouled team shall affect that play.
