I pulled out my old rulebooks (printed on dead trees) to check it out.
2001-2002 POE Handchecking, Rough Play, Hands Off
Defenders are not permitted to have hands on the dribbler!
The measuring up of an opponent (tagging) is hand-checking, is not permitted, and is a FOUL.
Use of a forearm, regardless of the duration of the contact is A FOUL.
Hand-checking is not incidental contact.
The capital letters are not mick's. The capital letters, and the exclamation mark, were put there by the NFHS.
I'm pretty sure that the capital letters and exclamation mark were put there by the NFHS for a reason.
This Point of Emphasis, and the annual interpretation from the same year, makes the NFHS philosophy on handchecking pretty clear.
2001-2002 Interpretations Part 2 SITUATION 17: Al is slowly dribbling the ball up the court. Bl is lightly “tagging” Al, but is not impeding Al’s forward motion. The official warns Bl to “keep hands off.” RULING: This is a foul. There is no warning. (10-6-1)
Once again, and as usual, when in Rome ...
