Where is a sideline throw taken?
Ball and possession · Rule 10.5.1
The team that did not touch the ball last takes a sideline throw where it left the playing area. If it struck an overhead obstacle, use the closest point on the sideline. The throw counts as a free throw.
How it works

In a game
Your opponent deflects a pass over the sideline, so you place your kayak at the exit point.
Remember
A sideline throw cannot score directly.
