Kind of like the circle in the NBA. The people running the clinic stated the circle will most likely filter down to college and HS.
Maybe the official misunderstood the positioning of the defender HAD to be under the basket.

If this was a Women's NCAA clinic, then the presenter was absolutely correct...if not, then it must just be the way they want it called in your area...either way, call it the way your boss tells you to.
