Fellow officials: please know that this page of misunderstood rules was condensed so as to be as efficient (and complete) as possible all on ONE PAGE of a handount.

Re: sliding on the floor.

My intent was to refer to the type of play where a player dives to go get a loose ball and then happens to slide
on the floor. The player never had control of the ball prior to his leaving his feet.
IMO that player is legal to slide until his actual momentum
is ended. At that point, no more movement is legal except to pivot on whatever part of the body that is on the floor,
which is usually his lower back side.
The player could not roll over or try to stand up.
Their options are: call TO, start a dribble, or pass, or shoot.

And BTW I must admit to not being absolutely correct with the 4 interpretations list by JR in his former posting.
I stand corrected and will re-write those soon, to be more precise.

To whomever received a copy from me, please edit these so
as not to confuse anyone who reads them in the future.

I'm always learning and have never professed to be purfekt.
