2) The measuring up of an opponent(tagging) is hand checking, is not permitted, and is a foul.
So there.  |
M, I was trying to say that the GPBOA guidelines were wrong, not the FED's. The guidelines that GPBOA issued on their website and posted in the first post of this thread stated
"The defensive player's actions of feeling for a screen that may be set to the side or rear is NOT a foul". Well, that, my friend, is a form of "tagging", and the NFHS says that sureashell
IS a foul. The FED has been saying that for as long as I can remember too. This ain't the first time that the FED has issued a POE saying that a defender shouldn't be allowed to gain an advantage by feeling for screens, etc. Iow, that GPBOA statement is completely contrary to long-standing FED guidelines, including the one that I outlined in red above. Btw, we teach "warn and call" on that one.
You can either believe something right out of the NFHS rule book, or you can believe something that is posted on the GPBOA web site that is completely opposite. Me? I'm gonna go with the FED.
That's why I would personally ignore everything put out by the GPBOA.
