Hey, guys and gals, I learned about a new rule that apparently is in the process of being put into effect. This nice coach told me about it. The exact wording is "If the defender's feet are off the floor, it's a forced out." The case book on this is that the coach's player was dribbling along the baseline and stepped out of bounds. I called her on it and that's when he told me about it.

He also told me some things I didn't know about my grandmother, my religion and my ophthalmologist. I was so glad to learn all this new information, that I thanked him politely, as he was leaving!

Jewel,
I'm not sure what you just said... maybe in this application.
A1 dribbling next to sideline and B1 lightly bumps A1 with similar contact not being called as a foul the whole game, but forcing A1 out of bounds.

Do we call

A1 out of bounds?

B1 for a cheap foul?

A1 forced out, and A ball for throw-in?

Actually, I would welcome such a rule.
