Fun With A Euro Step
IAABO Make The Call Video
https://storage.googleapis.com/refqu...dyZRMOpA%3D%3D Is this a legal "Euro Step?" Was this move executed legally? Two choices: This is a traveling violation. This is not a traveling violation. My comment: This is not a traveling violation. White #42s right foot is her pivot foot. She lifts that pivot foot to attempt a shot, and doesnt return her pivot foot to the floor until after the before the ball is released on the try.

The camera angle does block off our view cleanly, but I see nothing that suggests the dribble ended until the right foot was planted. Looks totally legal just based on that and it appears the ball is bouncing still when the left foot hits the floor (the last step).
Peace

If it's too close to call, don't call it. We shouldn't be calling "potential(s)". It should certainly get our antennae up, but no more than that.

IAABO Survey Says

https://storage.googleapis.com/refqu...dyZRMOpA%3D%3D IAABO Play Commentary: Correct Answer: This is not a traveling violation. Here is a maneuver that has gained popularity in recent years. The challenge for officials is this move can be done legally or illegally depending on where the feet are located when the ball handler ends their dribble. In this play, the ball handler appears to be airborne when the dribble ends, steps with her right foot, then to her left foot before jumping to attempt a try. A player who ends a dribble with both feet off the floor and lands on one foot followed by the other, the first foot to touch is the pivot foot. (4-44-2.a.2) And remember, a pivot foot may be lifted but may not be returned to the floor before the ball is released on a pass or try for a goal. (4-44-4.a) In this play, the ball handler established the right foot as the pivot foot and then jumped and released the ball on the try before returning the pivot foot to the floor. This is a legal play and is correctly ruled by the officials. For many of you, this is a traveling violation. You may be right! If the left foot were in contact with the floor when the dribble ended, it would have become the pivot foot when she stepped with her right foot. When she stepped back to the left foot before attempting the try, this would be a traveling violation. (4-44-3.a) Again, it depends on where the feet are located when the dribble ends. From our camera angle, we lose sight of the ball around the time the dribble ends which makes it difficult to be sure. As officials, we need to work hard and get an open view to properly identify the pivot foot to rule on this play. We need to be certain a violation has occurred before deciding to blow the whistle. Here is the breakdown of the IAABO members that commented on the video: This is not a traveling violation 86% (including me). This is a traveling violation 14%.
