The International Football Association Board (Ifab) has approved that the English leagues can now use the new handball law when the season resumes.<\/p>\n

This includes using the “T-shirt line” to differentiate between the arm and the shoulder for handball decisions.<\/p>\n

The “T-shirt line” or armpit – essentially where the sleeve on a T-shirt ends – will become a key marker on the player’s body for match officials, with anything below that being handball.<\/p>\n

The handball law had previously been changed so that a handball would be given against a player if their arms extended “beyond a natural silhouette”.<\/p>\n

New laws automatically in place on 1 June for the start of the new season.<\/p>\n

However, because of the suspension due to coronavirus, leagues will be allowed to implement them for the rest of this season.<\/p>\n

“Competitions which have been suspended because of Covid-19 have the option of completing the competition using the Laws of the Game 2019-20<\/a> or adopting the Laws of the Game 2020-21<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Friendly\/practice\/warm-up matches in preparation for the restart of the competition are permitted to use the version of the Laws that will be used when the competition restarts.”<\/p>\n

The change to the handball rule was the most significant alteration to the laws of the game that came out of\u00a0Ifab’s annual general meeting (AGM) in February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
