Ok,
I am taking the PIAA test tomorrow night and I know you guys will know the answers to my last minute questions.
I took the practice test they sent me and did well but have some questions...

OK, true or false...
1) Substitutes will not be allowed to enter on the first attempt of a multiple free throw.
I KNOW THIS IS TRUE BUT THEY CAN ENTER PRIOR TO THE FIRST FREE THROW WHEN A PLAYER IS REQUIRED BY RULE TO BE REPLACED... SO BECAUSE OF THIS EXCEPTION DO I ANSWER TRUE OR FALSE?

2) A substitute must report and be in position prior to the warning signal during a 30-second or a full time-out.
THE RULE BOOK SAYS THEY MUST REPORT or BE IN POSITION TO REPORT.... SO IS THIS FALSE?

3)There is player control during a tap or tip.
THE RULE BOOK SAYS THAT "Team control continues until the ball is in flight during a try or tap for goal."
UNTIL is the word confusing me....so if it is ion flight, than there is no team control and there is player control?

4) The coach shall designate who will shoot the free throws awarded for a technical foul.
I KNOW IT CAN BE THE COACH OR CAPTAIN...SO THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE?

5) On a throw-in, the ball becomes live when it touches an inbound player.
RULES STATE THE BALL BECOMES LIVE AT THE DISPOSAL OF THE THROWER.... sorry, I was confused on this one.... I thought true but it is false??

Here a few that I am not sure about....
1) During the game a coach may not use cards or signs to communicate with players on the court.
2) It is a violation to touch the net while the ball is in the imaginary cylinder above the ring. (I KNOW YOU CAN'T TOUCH THE BALL)
3) If a technical foul is administered to start an extra period, a jump ball will follow to establish the alternating procedure.
4) On a jump ball, the clock starts when the ball is touched by a nonjumper.

I know a lot of these are kind of simple questions but all your help is greatly appreciated. I am confident in taking the test that I will pass.... just want some last minute info!!

Thanks for helping a potential colleague!!!!

Linda
