They are allowed to dribble for an unlimited amount of time, run with the ball for up to three steps before and after dribbling, and hold the ball without moving for three seconds. Players are not allowed to pull, hit, or punch the ball out of an opponent's hands, endanger an opponent with the ball, or make contact with the ball below the knees. Free throws are awarded to the opponent in the event of minor fouls or violations. A seven-meter penalty shot is awarded to the opponent when major violations are committed.
