2017-18 IAABO Exam Questions ...
I have been asked to submit ten questions to IAABO to be used on the 2017-18 Applicant Exam, and/or the 2017-18 Refresher Exam. The questions are to be based on 2016-17, and 2017-18 NFHS rule changes, and Points of Emphasis. Here's what I came up with. Corrections, and/or comments would be appreciated. Especially corrections. I would hate to get my own test questions wrong. That would be very embarrassing.
1) Cheerleaders are located along the endline. The official informs the cheerleaders that they may not stand in the restricted area along the endline between the free throw lane lines extended. Is the official correct? Yes (Rule 1-20) 2) Cheerleaders attempt to come onto the playing court during a thirty second time out. The official informs the cheerleaders that they must remain outside of the playing area during a thirty second or less timeout during the game. Is the official correct? Yes (Rule 1-20) 3) The timekeeper sounds a warning signal to end the twenty seconds permitted for replacing a disqualified or injured player, or for a player directed to leave the game. The official believes this to be the correct procedure. Is the official correct? No (Rule 2-12-5) 4) Players on Team A are wearing white jerseys and red shorts. Several players on Team A are wearing white wrist bands, headbands, leg sleeves, and arm sleeves. Player A1 is wearing red compression shorts that extend below the uniform shorts. The official allows this because A1’s compression shorts are the same color as the uniform shorts. Is the official correct? No (Rule 3-5-3) 5) Players on Team A are wearing blue jerseys and blue shorts. Several players on Team A are wearing white wrist bands, headbands, leg sleeves, and arm sleeves. Player A2 is wearing a white undershirt under his uniform jersey. The official allows this because A2’s undershirt is the same color as the equipment worn by the other Team A players. Is the official correct? No (Rule 3-5-6) 6) Player A1 releases a free throw attempt. B1, occupying a marked free throw lane line space, crosses the free throw line after the release and enters the free throw semicircle before the ball touches the ring, the backboard, or until the free throw ends. B1 does not contact A1. A1’s free throw attempt bounces off the ring and is unsuccessful. After signaling a delayed free throw violation with an extended fist, the official calls a free throw violation on B1 and allows A1 a substitute free throw attempt. Is the official correct? Yes (Rule 9-1-3h) 7) Team A has possession of the ball in their frontcourt. The head coach of Team A requests a sixty second timeout while the ball is in the air as A1 is passing the ball to A2. The official grants the timeout request while the ball is in the air because the ball is in team control of Team A. Is the official correct? No (2016-17 NFHS Basketball Points of Emphasis, Rule 5-8-3a) 8) Team A has possession of the ball in their frontcourt. Defensive post player B1 is using a stationary arm bar to hold his position as offensive post player A1 positions himself on the free throw lane line block. As guard A2 attempts to pass the ball to post player A1, B1 extends his arm bar and displaces A1 from his position on the block. The official charges B1 with a pushing foul. Is the official correct? Yes (2016-17 NFHS Basketball Points of Emphasis, Rule 10-7-1) 9) The Team A head coach shows frustration with what he considers a missed travel call. He gestures with a travel signal, and tells the nearest official that he missed the call. Previous to this, there was not a hint of misconduct by the Team A head coach. The official judges that this misconduct is not a major problem, but needs to be dealt with. The official stops play and gives the Team A head coach an official warning for misconduct, which is recorded in the scorebook. Is the official correct? Yes (Rule 10-5, Rule 4-48) 10) The head coach of Team A is calling out plays to his team while he is standing on the sideline, two feet inside the end line. The official charges Team A head coach with a technical foul for standing outside the fourteen foot designated coaching box. Is the official correct? No (Rule 10-6-1, Rule 1-13)

Given we only have the NFHS press release regarding their description of what new rules were coming, your ten questions and accompanying answers appear legitimate and correct.
It would be interesting to see what questions could be added if they come up with any unannounced rules book or casebook changes or new POE's that either are or are not supported by a rule. I guess only time will tell. Until then, you're right on, it seems.

You Forgot One Mechanics Question
11. In the state of Connecticut, the digits of the player who committed the foul are reported to the table with the right finger(s) for the first digit and the left finger(s), if necessary, for the second digit for a fouler on the home team and with the left finger(s) for the first digit and the right finger(s), if necessary, for the second digit for a fouler on the visiting team. In the case that both teams are playing at a neutral site, the order of reporting will be purely random and it's up to the table to guess. Yes, 2-9-1 - rev. CT.

The NFHS Is Always Right, Even When They Are Wrong ...
No way. That would never happen.

The Land Of Steady Habits ...
We actually do have some "Connecticut Only" rules, and/or mechanics.
Point to floor for two-point field goal try when shooter has foot touching three point line. Team members are not allowed to congregate at division line, or on school logo during introductions. Coaching Box and Substitute “X” must be marked. If home coach, and/or home management, refuse to designate a coaching box with tape, the home team will not use a coaching box for that game. However, the visiting team will be allowed a coaching box. Notify Board Secretary, or Commissioner. Captains-Head Coaches-Officials pre-game meeting should occur prior to start of game. If the head coach refuses to attend the meeting, notify Board Secretary, or Commissioner. I believe that the "team congregate school logo introductions" is an actual NFHS "rule", but I believe it's embedded in a Point of Emphasis from several years ago, and never made it's way into the actual rulebook. The CIAC (Connecticut interscholastic sports governing body) wants this strictly enforced. Too many players spitting on the home team logo.

Or Less ???
I was using NFHS language. Maybe it refers to thirty second timeouts where both teams are ready to go after only a few seconds, occasionally seen late in lopsided games where coaches are trying to get players from the far end of the bench into the game. Maybe it refers to the fifteen second time interval, not really a timeout, to replace a disqualified or injured player, or for a player directed to leave the game.
NFHS 1-20: Non-playing personnel, e.g., spirit participants, media, shall remain outside of the playing area during a 30-second or less time-out during the game.

Why would the coach be out of the box if the box is 28'? Doesn't the coaching box start at the 28' mark...meaning the other end would be all the way too the endline? If the coach is on the sideline, 2 feet from the endline, they'd be in the new box, wouldn't they?

But you may be right. I have not seen the official wording, so my assumption may be wrong. |

Let's Go To The Videotape ...
The coaching box now shall be bounded by a line drawn 28 feet from the end line toward the division line.

NFHS Language ...
10-6-1: ... the head coach may stand within the designated coaching box ...
Good point, but regarding standing on the sideline, the sideline (as a boundary) is out of bounds.

Equipment ...
Only indirectly.
4) Players on Team A are wearing white jerseys and red shorts. Several players on Team A are wearing white wrist bands, headbands, leg sleeves, and arm sleeves. Player A1 is wearing red compression shorts that extend below the uniform shorts. The official allows this because A1’s compression shorts are the same color as the uniform shorts. Is the official correct? No (Rule 3-5-3) 5) Players on Team A are wearing blue jerseys and blue shorts. Several players on Team A are wearing white wrist bands, headbands, leg sleeves, and arm sleeves. Player A2 is wearing a white undershirt under his uniform jersey. The official allows this because A2’s undershirt is the same color as the equipment worn by the other Team A players. Is the official correct? No (Rule 3-5-6) I was supposed to only provide questions based on 2016-17, and 2017-18 NFHS rule changes, and Points of Emphasis. The "Skylar Diggins" rule (no extensions on headbands) was introduced in 2015-16.
