GV game 3 second to go and the score tied at 54. Ball is inbounded by red and immediately stolen by white in offensive zone. Ball is passed to team mate under the basket who scores. Problem is the timer forgot to start the clock!  Whistle, conference. What are my options?
Looking for any rule set answers but understand we play under FIBA here. I thing the rules would be similar anywhere in this situation. |
Smoke,
At any time if you have
definate knowledge of a timing error you can adjust the clock accordingly. Therefore if you knew for sure (100%) that this play took more then 3 seconds, wave the basket off, explain the reasoning and the game goes to OT. FIBA rules, start the OT with AP.
If you do not have definate knowledge, well that's a whole 'nother can of worms...
