In situation A, which hand was A1 dribbling with when B2 hit his left hip? If A1 lost the ball because of the contact, then I've got a foul. I think you need a patient whistle here because if there was minor contact and then the ball still stayed with team A then maybe you pass.

In situation 2, I've probably got a throw in for team A. Save time and the unless the contact was severe or B2 has been messing with the flow of your game. [/B]
Chris - thank you. I am looking for the "patient whistle" in both situations. I am attempting to instill the fact that we need to see the whole play from start to finish. Many referees have a quick whistle and do not officiate advantage/disadvantage. I know many have asked about the severity of the contact and how their view may be different than mine. I understand what you are explaining. [/B][/QUOTE]

I'm confused. Did you want our input and help or are you giving us a test or quiz to see if we pass? Just to let you know if that is the case you are on the wrong board to do that. If you have a question about a rule or have a real play that you would like some honest input on how to handle better, then you are at the right place.

If this was a play that you are having trouble with I apologize for the above questions.
