Hi All, back with the need of help. It hasn't yet happened but don't think it will be long. I've searched and searched and can not find an answer but others have asked the same question on the net but the same answer is given. Kick ins for u9s. You cant score direct, but if the biy or girl decides to shoot without first dribbling on and the keeper gets a hand to it does that count? If it takes a deflection of a defender does it then count? I guess if it hits a team mate that definitely does count as a pass almost albeit not deliberately.

I'm obvs out of touch as I still thought it was two hands on the ball for it to count as a keeper having it under control but just read it's only needs to be one.

Once a player has taken a kick in to themselves (they've dribbled in) they can score regardless of touches from anyone else. They can't score straight from the kick itself (without a touch from a defender).
 
So that's my confusion. I understand they can one touch, bang, score, thats fine its a legit goal but cant score direct from a lick in, but.......

If they shoot straight from the dead ball kick in and it hits a defender before going in is this a goal (you've said they can so answers that)

If they shoot straight from the dead ball kick in and the keeper gets a hand to it but it still goes in is this a goal?

Yep, essentially just like a throw in. You can't score directly but any touch = goal
