​In the first half during a team A throw-in, B1 is guarding the thrower-in, reaches through the boundary line before the ball is released, and the official properly blows the whistle and issues a delay warning. In the second half, after a successful goal by team B, B2 interferes with the ball by knocking it away from A3, who was attempting to grab the ball to make the throw-in. Handle the Situation?

2. Following team A’s successful goal, team B inbounds the ball with 2:30 on the game clock. Team A is in a full-court press, team B still has the ball in its backcourt, and B1 calls a timeout when the official’s 10-second backcourt count is at nine seconds. Following the timeout, B1 completes the throw-in to B2, who is in team B’s backcourt. B2 holds ball for one second such that the official’s count is at one second. The official calls a 10-second backcourt violation. Is this correct?

3. A1 is injured during the game, and the official blows the whistle to stop play. Team A’s head coach chooses to replace A1 with substitute A6 and does so within the time limit.

Intentional and Flagrant Foul Criteria

7/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Intentional & Flagrant  Foul Guidelines

1. The Severity of the Contact.
2. Legitimate Basketball Play. For example, whether a player is making a legitimate effort to block a shot, note, however, that a foul committed during a block attempt can still  be considered intentional or flagrant if other criteria are present such as recklessness and hard contact to the head, neck, shoulder or face.

3. Wind-Up/Impact/ Follow Through.

4. Potential for Injury Resulting from Contact. For example, a blow to the head and a foul committed when a player is in a vulnerable position.

5. Severity of any injury suffered by the offended player.

6. Outcome of the Contact. For example, did it lead to an altercation.

7. Intentional Fouls are contact against a player with or without the ball and is unnecessary.

8. Flagrant Fouls are contact against a player with or without the ball and is unnecessary and excessive.

9. Intentional contact on a live ball is a personal foul.

10. Intentional contact on a dead ball is a technical foul.

11. Flagrant contact on a live ball is a personal foul.

12. Flagrant contact on a dead ball is a technical foul. 

13. Remember when a defender fouls the thrower-in , its an intentional foul, whether the defender breaks the plane and makes contact with the thrower-in or the offender breaks the plane and the defender makes contact with the thrower-in.

14. One official go to the player who was fouled, the other go to the player who fouled and the third official secure the perimeter. 

15. These has to be a team officiating effort.
