Here is rule No. 5 of 13: "No shouldering, holding, pushing, tripping, or striking in any way the person of an opponent shall be allowed; the first infringement of this rule by any player shall count as a foul, the second shall disqualify him until the next goal is made, or, if there was evident intent to injure the person, for the whole of the game, no substitute allowed." http://qui.live.mediaspanonline.com/new_story/DOB-column-for-5-10-09
