∙ 13y agoAfter seeing an offense by a defender within the circle (or 23 metres area, if serious) and determining that no advantage could be played, the umpire controlling that circle will stop, blow their whistle (tone and length of this depending on the nature of the offense) and signal with both arms horizontal in front of the body, pointing towards the goal.
When the offense stops the ball from going into the goal, however, an umpire will award a penalty stroke.

∙ 12y agoOk so a penalty takes place in the circle. The team that's close to scoring (and innocent) has their forwards line up on the circle, except for either the right or left wing (depending on which side the penalty took place), and they are on the hash Marlon the endline. When the whistle blows they drive or slap the ball (if the hit is a dud they must put the ball back and take the hit again). The hitter cannot touch the ball until another player does. The offensive team's job is to bring the ball outside the circle, then get it to the goal. Meanwhile, four defensive players from the other team (not includingthe goalie) are behind the endline. Three of these players are in the cage, behind the goal line. The other player is behind the endline next to the cage on the side of the hitter. This person is the "flyer" they follow the ball and try to get it away from their cage (sort of offensively) and the other three are defensively trying to keep it out of the circle but stay in their positions. The flyer is generally center mid and the other three are usually backs. On the offensive team the mids are around the twenty five line and the backs are past the fifty. On the defensive team more defense players and I believe one forward is on the fifty and sprint to help. Everyone must be past the fifty.
