I've never played the sport in full, but I have played some strange knock off variations of the game in casual fun around the house. It's enjoyable, but not something I would make a big habit of doing like I do tennis
Quick question: Can a goalkeeper control the ball with their feet outside of the penalty area and bring it into the penalty area and handle the ball? I'm a new official, and I believe that the answer to this question is yes.
A game I was doing a few weeks back involved a play like this and I allowed play to continue. I think the laws allow this, but neither my partner nor I (we run a two man diagonal system [two whistles] of officiating here in high school matches, and it is terrible ) knew for sure. We both believed it legal.
What: Formula M (MRT Series) 2014 season
When: beginning around the first week of September, ending around the end of October
Event Format: 1 qualifying session (15 min.) followed by 1 sprint race (10 min.) and 1 longer race for double points (20 min.)
Rounds: Probably on every other Saturday around 14:00 GMT to avoid conflicts.

R2: F24 with races of 40 and 80 laps
R3: K21 with races of 7 and 14 laps
R4: SO5R with races of 6 and 12 laps
This short schedule has multiple different challenges and environments to suit all drivers, and the short number of events promises that competitors won't be bored of this series before it's completion.
-Please vote yes if you would try to compete in all rounds.
-Please vote no if you cannot complete in most rounds for any reason, or if you are not interested in this series.
I enjoyed administrating this event, and all of us in Race Control almost unanimously agreed that today was really fun. This is thanks to everybody who attended. Thank you

I have thinned down the entry list to only those who are approved for competition. The LFS World lap time submission I have made a little easier to complete by allowing drivers to either upload a lap to LFS World OR run a lap time under 1:02.505 on [WR] LFS Grand Prix while Airio is running. This means that only two competitors who registered have been declined participation. (If you haven't been PM'ed, you're not one of them).
Participants should be in attendance in about an hour and 45 minutes. See you soon
I will be headed to Mid-Ohio tomorrow morning Forecast looks decent right now
I think my girlfriend and I will sit in the "Keyhole" (Turn 2) if we sit down there early enough That's probably the best passing opportunity on the track. I've never attended a road course race, but I think it's going to be pretty fun
