That is about the best that you are going to get. The bench area is obviously out of bounds, but after that it depends upon where game management for a particular school wishes to have the teams. Some places have chairs, some put the teams in the first row of the bleachers, some are further back from the court than others, etc.


Nevada, What you have posted is also the only reference I had already found. We are arguing a NFHS question. We are trying to see if the question is poorly written and is using "team bench area" to mean "time out area" OR does the question want us to know that "bench area" and "time out area" are NOT the same thing.
