RULE 5 / SCORINGANDTIMING REGULATIONS
Art. 14. Shortened timeouts: a. The team that requests a timeout may shorten that timeout when the captain/head coach notifies the official of the team’s intent. Exception: the first team called timeout of the second half or extra period in a game involving electronic-media timeout format as in
5-13.10.d.1.
b. When a request is made to shorten any timeout for a substitution(s), the signal for shortening a timeout shall be given and play shall be resumed immediately. c. In games involving the electronic-media timeout format, when a timeout has been recognized to be shortened for the sole purpose of making substitutions and the timeout causes the first dead ball after one of the specified time marks for electronic-media timeouts (15-, 10-, 5- or 16-, 12-, 8-, 4-minutes), that timeout shall become an electronic-media timeout. d. When a request has been made to shorten any timeout for a purpose other than for substitution(s), a warning horn shall be sounded immediately
