NFHS 2 person mechanics

Hi all,

We've seen the light and are moving to the NFHS 2 person mechanics ( to be used with the NCAA men's rules) for our high school ball north of the border.

I have yet to recieve my manual and I am to instruct the differences between NFHS 2 person and FIBA 2 person at a clinic this week.

Does anyone have an online copy they could email me or send me some of the major differences between the 2.

Thanks all

Ian,

As far as I know, the NFHS doesn't put any of its publications online, and that includes the official's manual. It sounds like you've already ordered one, so it may just be a "sit and wait" situation.

And since I'm not at all familiar with FIBA mechanics, I can't give you any help. If you post a specific situation, we can probably tell you how it would be handled in FED mechanics. Sorry I can't be more help than that.

The only thing the NFHS has on the web site is the signals chart. http://(http://www.nfhs.org/staticco...B_Signals.pdf)

I work both FIBA and NFHS and can assure you they are VERY, VERY different. Way to many differences to list. Sit back and wait for the book.

I googled "FIBA" & "NFHS" & "differences" and came up with some hits. The one that seems to be what you want is:

After reading throught them all, some of the NFHS need updating. Don't know about FIBA.

I also googled "NFHS" & "rule changes" & Basketball" & "2004" and found the following. This will help you if you can find a 2003 Rule Book.

Louisiana HS Officials 2 man mechanics manual: http://www.lhsaa.org/officialsfiles/...nicsManual.pdf

British Columbia Officials 2 person manual: http://www.bcboa.org/OfficiatingManual.pdf (i'm not sure how current this is, but they also have a link to the 2003 mechanics at http://www.bcboa.org/BCBOAManual2003.pdf , but maybe this is what you're switching from?
