That’s why Game Management is around. When in doubt, ask. Different places have different rules. If it’s the home gym of one of the teams, ask the coach.

Billy, I’ve got that beat. The old Rice High School gym in Manhattan was so small…the top of three-point lines nearly intersected with the division line. There also was no way to take a three from the corners or about 15 feet out of the corners. And yes, they played games there – Freshman and JV – until the place closed. They also played varsity games but stopped years before I became an official in the early 90s.
