TheBrownBottle Posted February 8, 2024 Share Posted February 8, 2024 1 hour ago, bobbydazzla said: Rush keeper = goalie can be an outfield player Fog man back = anyone can be goalie if they’re the last man in defence Any other interpretation is quite simply utter nonsense They were both the same. A goalie can play outfield normally. One rule we did sometimes play is that any ‘fog man back’ or ‘rush goalie’ wasn’t allowed to cross halfway in normal play. So effectively a few players could be ‘it’ if they’re back first, but those players had to stay in their own half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted February 8, 2024 Share Posted February 8, 2024 “Rush keeper” and “first man back” where I grew up. Where did “fog” come from? Also had a modified version of the latter which was “last man back”, which was expectedly absolute chaos . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted February 9, 2024 Share Posted February 9, 2024 Being pedantic… goalies are not restricted from playing out /up field. They are just the only ones permitted to use their hands which is why their shirt is a different color. But they can go anywhere on the field they want. So by definition then rush-goalies has to be first-man-back. Else it’s just the keeper playing up/back [/pedant] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a Wiki article I found https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rush_goalie that seems to infer its unsurprisingly usually to even up teams with uneven numbers up but I still don't understand what extra rule it's actually implementing considering a 'keeper can venture upfield if they really wanted to anyway. Granted I'm a southerner here so I'm fighting a losing battle if no one up north deemed rush goalies the same as me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
