The flashes in college and pro games are 100's of times more powerful than the little flash in a pocket camera. Those "pro" flashes aren't a problem so why would a tiny pocket camera flash be a problem. Even if they've got a nice digital SLR with an external flash, they're still no more than one tenth the power of the pro flashes.

I am going to have to stop you there. I think it depends on where it is used. I have seen people use cameras right in the view point of the FT shooter. I have also seen those lights from camcorders that I have had turned off in they are distracting. Usually these are brought to the attention by the coach or players. So I would not say it was ridiculous if the people are right off court. We are not talking about a huge arena where the flashes are several feet away.
