Held ball: inbound locations?

[bucky]

I'm thinking obvious answer....maybe just looking for confirmation:

Case 1: In Team A's FC, A1 and B3 are involved in a held ball, with A1 outside the 3-point arc and B3 inside the 3-point arc. If the A/P arrow is in Team A's favor, where is the inbound location? And if in Team B's favor?

Case 2: A4 and B2 are involved with a held ball, with both players straddling the division line. If the A/P arrow is in Team A's favor, where is the inbound location? And if in Team B's favor?

1. Unclear. The NFHS did not provide any guidance on how to handle fouls and held ball situations when one player is inside the 3pt arc and the involved opponent is outside or vice-versa.

2. Both players have backcourt status, therefore I would award either team the ball at the 28 foot line in their backcourt based upon who has the arrow.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you have too much time on your hands.

The NF has never been that specific, so pick the best spot. Until they give guidance, I would do the exact same I did when we debated had other violations with the rocket ship, we just put the ball where we thought is should go. Then we moved on.

BillyMac: I do love “Jump Ball” multiple questions! Case 2 is why we need to go back to using a Jump Ball instead of the AP Arrow.

NOTE (1.0): For Case 1 it does not matter if: i) there is no Team Control of the Ball by both Teams just prior to the Held Ball or ii) there is Team Control of the Ball by one of the Teams just prior to the Held Ball.

Case 1/Team A’s AP Arrow: A1 is in Team A’s part of its Front Court that is outside of the Three Point Arc, therefore Team A will receive its AP Arrow Throw-in at the nearest Side Line Designated Throw-in Sports in Team A’s Front Court.

Case 1/Team B’s AP Arrow: B3 is in Team B’s part of its Back Court that is inside of the Three Point Arc in Team A’s Front Court, therefore Team B will receive its AP Arrow Throw-in at the nearest End Line Designated Throw-in Sports in Team B’s Back Court.


NOTE (2.0): For Case 2 it does matter if: i) there is no Team Control of the Ball just prior to the Held Ball, ii) there is Team Control of the Ball by one of the Teams just prior to the Held Ball, and iii) if (i) is the Case then which Team did have Control of the Ball and which Player caused there to be a Held Ball and his/her Court Status. The matrix for Case 2 is too much for me to want to take the time to put together as it is 11:4pmEST and I am going to go to bed. Maybe I will to it tomorrow but the two liter bottle of Di Saronno Amaretto may not be enough to get me through putting together the matrix.
