Spot clock reset

[arthur_b9]

I was watching a game this Thursday. During the second quarter of a girl’s varsity game A1 is in her frontcourt, takes a three point spot to the basket with 15 seconds left on the spot clock. The basketball gets lodged between, the backboard and ring. The trial official knows he has a dead ball situation and goes to the alternate possession arrow. The possession arrow favors team A for the throw-in on the end line. Then there’s confusion between the two officials. They come together and confer do we reset the shot clock or not because Team A is receiving the ball back? The referee makes a decision to reset the spot clock back to 30 seconds and team B coach is asking why is the spot clock being reset. The referee responded to team B coach “because A1’s spot hit the ring so new spot clock coach”. My question to this situation did the officials get it right? To moderators, is there a casebook situation on this? In California we have a 35 second shot clock for boys and a 30 second spot clock for girls.

They have a spot clock now? Does it count to 3?

BTW, I don't know, because I've never done a game with a shot clock.

NCAA 2003 A.R. 29 (in short)
Arrow favors A.
A shot lodges.
A gets ball.
Shot clock is reset.

as soon as the ball becomes dead in that situation theres automaticly new 30 sec (Here in denmark its 24): It doesn't matter who the possesion arrow gives the ball to

mette-sbbk,
NCAA rules are not the same as the metric (FIBA) rules you may use.
When the alternating possession arrow is required and the arrow favors the team with last possession, the shot clock is not reset with few exceptions.

Welcome to the forum.

The changes are already in FIBA. They were made before the 2004/2005 season started.

Wow, the time difference between the US and Europe is counted in months? I thought it was hours, but if you guys have already started the 2004-2005 season, y'all must be quite a few International Date Lines ahead of us.

Good one, Snaqs!. But let's give the poor fellow a little slack -- he's got a lot of different things to translate!

I'm surprised at you, Jewel.
There was nothing wrong with what Mette wrote.
We, too, use rules "made before the 2004/2005 season started".
