Background

Proposal

Old

14B.5.3 Riding The Unicycle
The player has to be riding the unicycle freely. He or she may use the stick as support
but must not rest on the goal or the wall or something similar. It is not sufficient to
release the goal only quickly for the time while the goalkeeper takes part in the game. A
short support on the wall to avoid a dismount can be tolerated. A player who is falling o
the unicycle may take part in the game until touching the ground. A remounting player
must sit on the seat and have both feet on the pedals before participating in the game
again. If a player who is not riding a unicycle shoots into their own goal, the advantage
rule applies for the attacking team and the goal is valid.
