How do I signal a successful or unsuccessful kick at goal?

- Successful kick (goal scored): raise your flag above your head.
- Unsuccessful kick: wave your flag across and in front of your body, below the waist. If the ball goes over the dead ball line, tap the ground with the end of the flag stick.
You help the referee judge kicks at goal, and you may leave touch to do so.
