I currently coach Under 10 and have refereed for 3 seasons
If two players dive for a loose ball, player 1 claims it then player 2 lands on top of the 1st, off their feet, I call to roll away. (Law 14.1.c and d)
However if the 2nd player remains on their feet and plays the player, not the ball, they are not allowing the 1st player to act immediately. Is there a law that says you must not prevent a player from passing the ball or attempting to get to their feet? I thought there was. If so which is it please?
cheers
