Handoff rules question

    Hi Guys,
    First year training with the firsts this year and i've seen some fairly brutal hand-offs in training.
    And i want to do it too :)

    But im wondering about the rules.
    One of the Tongans playing with us literally smashes guys with the heel of his palm right into the 1st rib/throat/chin area. Its as close to a punch as you can get. With devastating consequences usually.

    Is this legal?
    Can you hand off to the face?
    And if so, would this semi-punch be legal?
    I doubt it, and i dont intend on busting anyone in the face. But i would smash them in the chest if i thought i could and it wasnt a peno.

    What do you think?
    Thanks! :)
