My take on all of this is there no one set of rules that is perfect.

In our province (New Brunswick), there is a movement to adopt one set of rules for the different levels of play: probably NCAA. Right now, High Schools use FIBA and colleges use NCAA. Many officials work both levels and the differences are numerous. Our provincial association is looking at the adoption of one set rules which would benefit players, coaches and especially officials.

For the record, I believe that FIBA is the weakest (or feeblest) in terms of interpretations. Especially its no goaltending rule above the cylinder. This rule is irrelevant at the lowest levels since nobody plays above the rim, but at higher levels it's a joke.
