For purposes of stats the first player to gain control of the ball after a missed try gets credit for the rebound. If the player commits a foul in the act of rebounding it is a team rebound for the team that was fouled. If a ball goes OB after a try the team that gets possesion gets a team rebound. If a rebound results in a held ball the player whose team has the possesion arrow gets credit for the rebound. Simply put, if there is a missed try, there must be a rebound. Some of the new electronic stat boards will return error codes if there is no rebound after a missed try.
