Brand new member. Apprentice referee in my home pool (1 year exp). Enjoy the forum for its professional approach. Closely Guarded
1) By definition six feet, but the difference between being actually closely guarded in 12th grade and sixth grade is huge. Lately I have been allowing my discretion to influence beginning the count rather than my estimate of distance.
2) I have been instructed that CG counts begins during a held ball or while dribbling but ends/recommences when player in control begins dribbling or picks up her dribble respectively. I can't find the distinction in the rule book. Is my mentor incorrect?
