Hands touching the ground.

Article 6 states (in part):
"The feet must be entirely on the inside of the circle without touching it, and they must not leave the circle or be lifted completely off the ground until the thrown boule has touched the ground. No other part of the body may touch the ground outside the circle. The exception is that those who are disabled in a lower limb are allowed to place only one foot inside the circle."


It seems that "If no other part of the body may touch the ground outside the circle," then other part of the body may touch the ground _inside_ the circle!
