How is a team awarded a corner kick?
When attacking a goal. If all of the ball passes over the goal line and it was last touched by a defensive player, and a valid goal was not scored (meaning the ball did not enter the goal mouth), the game must be restarted by use of a "corner kick". The ball is placed in the corner arc on the side of the pitch that the ball went out of play and kicked by an attacking player. A goal may be scored directly from a corner-kick. The defending players must be at least 10 yards from the arc before the play can commence.
