Hello all

My youngest and I had a game today, she was home sick from school and I stayed with her. We were playing the board game version and not the Fumbbl version, She is 9 so we limit her internet time. There arose a question, I ruled one way and have not found an answer in the rule book. it happened twice and I held the same ruling both times. It concerns when a player is carrying the ball and is blocked and the result comes up a push back. I ruled that the ball carrier does NOT drop the ball as a result of a simple push back. I know if the defender is knocked down the yes the ball carrier drops the ball, but I could not find a ruling on just a push back. Please tell me I am out of my mind or not. If I am please point me to the page of where the ruling is. Thank you in advance.

You are correct. Player does not drop the ball on a push back, unless the player blocking them has stripball. This in turn is negated if the ball carrier has sure hands.

If the player carrying the ball is pushed out of the pitch he will lose the ball and it will be throw-in by the crowd.
