According to the international Laws of the Game administered by FIFA, a whistle is not needed to restart from a "free kick, goal kick, corner kick, throw in." Furthermore, a whistle is required for the following:

• start play (1st, 2nd half), after a goal

• stop play:

- for a free kick or penalty kick

- if the match is suspended or abandoned

- when a period of play has ended due to the expiration of time

• restart play for:

- free kicks when the appropriate distance is required

- penalty kicks

• restart play after it has been stopped due to:

- the issue of a yellow or red card for misconduct

- injury

- substitution.

This information is obtained from The Laws of the Game2010, p. 76.

What is the signal for an indirect free kick?

Play will be stopped, usually with a whistle. The referee will immediately indicate a direction with his arm extended up at a 45 degree angle. Once the ball is placed, the referee will then hold his arm straight up until the ball leaves the field of play or another player touches it after the kick. A direct free kick will omit the "arm straight up" part.

Refs arm for indirect and direct in soccer?

When an indirect free kick is awarded, the referee will raise one arm straight up, similar to an ice hockey referee indicating a delayed penalty. The referee will maintain this position until the ball has been put in play and subsequently touched by another player or goes out of bounds. A goal cannot be scored while the referee's arm is in the air for this reason. The arm acts as a visual reminder that the free kick is indirect. Direct free kicks do not have any sort of arm-raised signal. After the kick is awarded, generally by pointing to the spot of the ball and the direction of travel, the referee will lower his arms, take a good position to monitor the ensuing play, and wait with arms down.

What signal does the referee give when a goal is scored in soccer?

In soccer, a direct free kick is a restart awarded by the referee after a foul has occurred. The ball is placed on the ground at the spot of the foul, and the kicking team may kick it, at which time the ball is in play. All defenders must remain at least 10 yards from the ball until it is kicked and moves.
