Feet on the ground when you throw it. The rest is just an elaborate version of walking up to throw it. (I think that's the answer.)

i think thats right. funny thing is had the goalie not touched the ball it would have been disallowed. cant score directly from a throw in.

also, what texas hs lets soccer play on their football field? our football team wasnt even allowed to practice on the football field.

rules for throw in:

 

The ball must be thrown with both hands.

It must be thrown from behind the head.

The player making a throw-in must have both feet on the ground when throwing the ball.

He may run to gain momentum for the throw-in but both his feet should be on the ground when the ball is released.

He must stay off the field of play, though he may step on the line when making the throw.

He can only touch the ball again after it has been played by another player.

Players must be at least two meters away from the thrower before the ball is released.

A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in. It must be touched first by another player.

If a player throws the ball into the opponents’ goal, play will be restarted by a goal kick from the opposing team’s end.

If the throwing player puts the ball into his own team’s goal, play will be restarted with a corner kick for the opposing team.

A player cannot be offside in football when receiving a throw-in.
