1. There's nothing in the Federation rule or case book that addresses what you described. However, I can see it being a very common thing because that 20 minute break followed by 90 seconds of playing time, followed by a 10 minute half-time can (a) put the gym behind schedule and (b) play weird with the mental game for all players. I think this practice is a good thing to do. In my state (ahem), there is no provision to do this. If it is done, it is solely between the officials and game management at that time.

2. The worst injury I know of is one that I only heard about. Some dood messed up his patella pretty bad. It was not a pleasant sight, as the story goes. One of the refs puked on the visiting coaches shoes.
