One rule that is little known..at least by players. If the ball goes out of play, they should stop play. As a coach I teach players to keep playing until the whistle, as a ref, we can call the player that keeps on playing, and give the ball to the opposing team.
Let me add to my statement, the player should be calling the ball out, if it goes out, and indicate themselves who the ball belongs too. The ref should never have to interfere with a whistle!
