An opponent must stay at least 2 meters from the thrower. Penalized by a yellow card - - - Or a friggin soccer ball thrown to the face.
Now the question come in - is it 2 meters from where the thrower started or the point from which he releases the ball. Its been a long time for me, but I believe its the line or thats what we used as the rule.

Red card trumps the yellow.
