Wrong rule book

Rule 45 - Contact to the Head
45.1 Contact to the Head - A player shall not make direct contact from any direction with an opposing player’s head or neck area in any manner (including, but not limited to, with the shoulder, stick, elbow, etc.).
PENALTY—Major and game misconduct or disqualification at the discretion of the referee
