A shot on goal is taken when the team in possession of the ring legally propels it toward the other team's goal and:
- the ring enters the net;
- the ring contacts a goal post or the crossbar;
- the ring contacts the goaltender or AGK within the goal crease; or
- the ring contacts the goaltender outside the goal crease and that contact prevents the ring from entering the net.
A shot on goal resets the shot clock to thirty seconds.
