That's correct. It's only a requirement, though, if they are within 3' of the circle. I think the OP was talking about players farther away than that.

Also, several of the High Schools in our area have a decorative circle surrounding the Center Circle, that is about 18 inches wide. It's common for the non-jumpers to stay behind that circle, rather than approaching the actual 6' radius circle. I usually tell them they can stand at the actual circle.
I wouldn't tell them this. I would answer if asked.
