Section 56. Screen Art. 1. A screen is legal action by a player who, without causing contact, delays or prevents an opponent from reaching a desired position. Art. 2. In screening tactics, the screener shall not be required to face in any particular direction at any time. Art. 3. The screener shall not lean into the path of an opponent or extend his or her hips into that path, even though his or her feet are stationary. Art. 4. A player with the ball may be a screener and shall be subject to the principles of screening. Art. 5. While most screening is by the offense, the principles of screening shall apply equally to the offense and defense. A.R. 33. A defensive player maneuvers to a position in front of post player A1 to prevent A1 from receiving the ball. A pass is made over the head and out of reach of the defensive player. Post player A1 moves toward the basket to catch the pass and try for goal. As the pass is made, a teammate of the defensive player moves into the path of A1, in a guarding position. RULING: This action involves a screening principle. The defensive player has switched to guard a player who does not have the ball. Therefore, the switching player must assume a position one or two strides in advance of the pivot player (depending upon the speed of movement of the pivot player) to make the action legal. When A1 has control of the ball (provided that the pivot player is not in the air at the time), the play shall become a guarding situation. When it is a guarding situation involving the player with the ball, time and distance shall be irrelevant. Plus: Section 20. By Players Art. 1. A player shall not hold, push, charge, trip or impede the progress of an opponent by extending arm(s), shoulder(s), hip(s) or knee(s) or by bending his or her own body into other than a normal position; nor use any unreasonably rough tactics. Art. 3. A player shall not use his or her hand(s) on an opponent to inhibit the freedom of movement of the opponent in any way or to aid an opponent in starting or stopping. Art. 4. A player shall not extend the arm(s) fully or partially other than vertically so that freedom of movement of an opponent is hindered when contact with the arm(s) occurs. Section 22. By Screener Art. 1. A player shall not cause contact by setting a screen outside the visual field of a stationary opponent that does not allow this opponent a normal step to move. Art. 2. A screener shall not make contact with the opponent when setting a screen within the visual field of that opponent. RULE 10-20/FOULS AND PENALTIES BR-140 Art. 3. A screener shall not take a position so close to a moving opponent that this opponent cannot avoid contact by stopping or changing direction. A.R. 22. B1 maneuvers to a position in front of offensive post player A1 to prevent A1 from receiving the ball. A high pass is made out of the reach of B1. The offensive post player A1 moves toward the basket to catch the pass and try for goal. As the pass is made, B2 moves into the path of A1, in a guarding position. RULING: This action involves a screening principle. B2 has switched to guard a player who does not have the ball; therefore, the switching player shall assume a position one or two strides in advance of offensive post player A1 (depending upon the speed of movement of A1) to make the action legal. When A1 has control of the ball (provided that the offensive post player A1 is not in the air at the time), the play shall become a guarding situation. When it is a guarding situation involving the player with the ball, time and distance shall be irrelevant. Art. 4. No player, while moving, shall set a screen that causes contact or delays an opponent from reaching a desired position. Art. 5. When both opponents are moving in exactly the same path and direction and the screener slows down or stops and contact results, the trailing player shall be responsible for such contact. Art. 6. No player shall use arm(s), hand(s), hip(s) or shoulder(s) to force through a screen or to hold or push the screener. Art. 7. Screeners shall not line up next to each other within 6 feet of a boundary line and parallel to it so that contact occurs. a. Screeners shall be permitted to line up parallel to a boundary line and next to each other without locking arms or grasping each other, provided that the screen is set at least 6 feet from that boundary line. |
