Free Throw Definition Of Goaltending ???
Rookie NFHS officials: Take note. Although it isn't directly relevant to this situation, please remember that during a free throw, the ball doesn't have to be on its downward flight, entirely above the basket ring level, with the possibility of entering the basket, for goaltending to occur. During a free throw, the ball simply has to be touched by an opponent of the free thrower while it's outside the cylinder; count the one point, technical foul.
4-22-1: Goaltending occurs when a player touches the ball during a field-goal try or tap while it is in its downward flight entirely above the basket ring level and has the possibility of entering the basket in flight, or an opponent of the free thrower touches the ball outside the cylinder during a free-throw attempt.
