Techs and Team Fouls Count
At first association meeting and of course some basketball officials by nature like to argue and challenging anything said.
I know this is in the book and been discussed on this forum, but I need confirmation before I decide to drop basketball and become a hockey referee even though I don't skate!;) All technical fouls count towards team foul count except indirect? I say yes! All Administrative Techs count towards team foul count? I say yes! Indirect Tech is always paired with a direct Tech? I say yes! Correct on all of the above? Thanks! |
Indirect technical fouls only are about the head coach and who got them as bench personnel. So do not confuse indirect to direct technicals as it relates to the team foul count. Indirects only involve the things that can get a coach disqualified from the game. You do not "technically" call an Indirect technical foul."

You are completely correct.
The indirect is always paired with a direct on someone else. You can never have an indirect alone. Furthermore, the two are from one event and recorded as one team foul since only one infraction occurred. It is just that two people are held accountable for the action. |
Note that in NCAA not all those statements are true and that might be what is confusing some of the officials.

Like indirect technical fouls, class B technical fouls do not count towards the bonus, whether assessed as secondary penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct on the bench by someone not the head coach, or as a primary penalty. |

You'd be surprised at how much time is wasted on simple rules stuff that goes in local association meetings. Sometimes you need surgery to remove your palm from your face afterwards. And sometimes that issue takes 2 or three meetings. |

Personally speaking, I have always contended that the rules aren't a problem, including brand new rules, it's the rule changes that often present a problem. Rebounders entering the lane on free throws has changed from release, to hit, back to release during my tenure, but that doesn't seem to be a problem for me. Problems? Alternating possession throwin that gets kicked (new throwin is non-alternating possession throwin, or an alternating possession throwin?). Jump ball that is caught by one of the jumpers (lose the ball and lose the arrow, or just lose the ball?). I mentally screw those up all the time. Luckily I don't get many of those in real games. https://tse3.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.7...=0&w=290&h=165 |

Nobody's perfect, but I would have thought that one of these two guys would have said to the other, "Wait a minute ...". I called a double foul last season (two players being knuckleheads early in a physical rivalry game). I seldom make this call and dislike the call for a few reasons, one being that I hate memorizing two numbers with two colors and reporting such (I'm always afraid that I'm going to mix them up, right color, wrong number). I knew that play was going to be resumed from the point of interruption (not from a jump ball, or alternating possession, like in Ancient Times © Mark T. DeNucci, Sr., 2018). On the way to the table I kept saying to myself, "White 40, Blue 20. White 40, Blue 20. White 40, Blue 20". I was pretty pleased with myself that I remembered that play was going to be resumed from the point of interruption, but I confusedly (thinking to myself that the hardest part of the call was reporting the correct fouls) and carelessly gave the ball to the wrong team. Coach incorrectly thought that I used the alternating possession arrow and questioned me when they didn't get the next alternating possession arrow. I wish I had a partner that night that said "Wait a minute ...". https://tse4.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.x...=0&w=212&h=183 |
