Bob Jenkins gave you an excellent answer as did the poster who noted that a pass which strikes the ring does not cause a shot clock reset, it must be a try for goal. Please don't let one or two unfriendly posters chase you away from learning more about the game on this site. There are many excellent people on here who can help you and answer your questions with class.

Very few of us will ever end up at a level where this can be our only means of income.

Just something to think about...
An excellent point. JC ball was $100 per game and a 90-mile trip each way when I was working that level.
