Had my first game of the season this past Saturday and wouldn't you know it, because of this thread, we started of the season with 3 unusual calls where we got together to make sure we were straight on our ruling.
Men's JuCo so we were using NCAA-Men's rule set:
- A1 bringing ball up court vs. man pressure. A1 ends his dribble while straddling division line and attempts to pass ball to A2 who is still in backcourt. B1, with backcourt status, tips the pass, which hits off A2 and rolls back to free throw line. A2 retrieves ball and then passes across court to A1 who is still in backcourt. Shot clock hits 25 seconds as A1 is still dribbling in backcourt. I am trail and whistle the 10 second violation.
- Post player A1 loses ball while making a move to basket and the ball goes across the lane and is headed OOB along end line. A2 saves the ball by throwing it out to the 28' line right in front of the Trail. B3 is just about to grab the ball when A3 dives for ball and takes out B3's legs. Trail whistles foul. We confer and determine that A still had team control, so no bonus free throws are shot.
- A1 on a fast break gets chased down by B1 who knocks ball away from A1 towards the end line underneath the basket. B1 chases ball down and saves it by grabbing it with 2 hands and throwing it over his head. Ball travels over backboard back towards the playing court. We call the violation, but also confer and reset shot clock because we determine B1 had PC during the save.
