There is no offside offence
if a player receives the ball directly from:

- a throw-in or
- a corner kick

- For any offside offence, the referee awards an indirect free
kick to the opposing team to be taken from the place where the
infringement occurred. * (see page 3)

Decision 1
In the definition of offside position, "nearer to his opponents' goal
line" means that any part of his head, body or feet is nearer to his
opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent.
The arms are not included in this definition.
