Question Basketball faceguarding!!!
A couple of weeks ago in a rec league basketball game we had a game where the official called a violation on a player for faceguarding another player on a long pass. I said that the play is legal, what say you?

Your brother was right. It's not legal.
In fact, it's not a violation; it's a technical foul.

For Coaches And Fanboys Who May Not Have A Rulebook ...
NFHS 10-3-7-d Player Technical: Commit an unsporting foul. This includes, but is not limited to, acts or conduct such as: Purposely obstructing an opponent’s vision by waving or placing hand(s) near his/her eyes. NOTE: Purposely diverting an opponent’s attention by waving is different than holding or waving the hands near the opponent’s eyes for the express purpose of obstructing the vision so that he/she cannot see.

This year the rule number has changed. It's now 10-3-6d. Go figure.

Good call, Snaqs !
I've got this year's books and last year's books on the same snap ring.
You can guess which book I opened.
I kicked another one.
Thanks.

HA! I was really confused for a few moments. I thought I was going to have to go get another cup of coffee because either my book was misnumbered or I have lost my mind over night. Good catch!
