    A Couple Questions, thanks in advance:

    1. Inadvertant handball in the box, play on or indirect free kick for the opposition from inside the box?

    2. Throw-in back to the keeper from teammate, can he handle in his area?

    1. Inadvertant = unintentional, therefore play on.

    2. No, he can't use his hands.

    correct, i would add:

    2. if goalie does use hands, indirect free kick in the box (related to '1', this pass back scenario to the goalie - off a throw in or in the run of play - is the only situation where a handball can result in an "indirect" kick)

    Inadvertent handball is nothing - no call. A throw-in handled by the keeper in the penalty area was previously legal (before about 1997). FIFA decided that along with the pass back from a teammate that this was a means of slowing the game. Hence both were restricted (i.e. the keeper could no longer handle.)

    1. Handling must be deliberate. No call.
    2. Not if received directly from the thrower
