Varsity Dunking in Junior Varsity Halftimes
Please remind your varsity teams that it is a rules violation for varsity players to dunk during halftime warm-ups and/or in the shoot around of junior varsity games. Officials have noted there is an increase over previous years of limited oversight by coaches and/or game administration. The rule is in place for two important reasons: 1) the safety of the participants, and 2) the welfare of the basket and rim. Players can get hurt and baskets can become unplayable, so please reinforce this with coaches and players alike.
Somewhat vague, but definitely justification for calling the T in the situation we're discussing here.
