Description

The US Soccer build out line is a line on the field used in youth soccer to encourage playing out from the back. 

It is located halfway between the goal line and the halfway line. 

When a team takes a goal kick or the goalkeeper has possession, the opposing players must retreat behind this line before the ball is put back into play. 

For offside purposes, players cannot be offside between the build-out line and the halfway line.
