Free Throws

[Zoochy]

I was watching a tournament game in my area. A player was shooting a Technical foul and the officials were adamant about getting the players behind the division line. A player was refusing and it created a big commotion.

Rule 8-1 Free Throw Administration
Article 4 During a free throw, lane spaces may be occupied as follows: (There are 6 provisions)
Article 5: ... Any Player, other than the Free Thrower, who does not occupy a marked lane space shall be behind the Free-throw line extended and behind the 3-point line.

Rule 9-1 Free Throw Provisions
Article 3 After the ball is placed at the disposal of the free thrower
provision f. Any Player, other than the Free Thrower, who does not occupy a marked lane space, may not have either foot beyond the vertical plane of the free-throw line extended and the 3-point line which is farther from the basket until the ball touches the ring or until the free-throw ends

Rule 8-3 Attempting Technical Foul - Free Throws
The free throws awarded because of a technical foul may be attempted by any player of the offended team, including an eligible substitute or a designated starter. The coach or the captain may designate the free thrower(s).

So per Rules 8 & 9, no wording says players have to be behind the division line for a technical nor intentional free throw. It's a myth.
Also per Rule 8 states that there can be more than 1 free thrower to attempt the technical free throws

Are the rules different for NCAA-M, NCAA-W, FIBA, NBA and WNBA?
