I just did my first OBA sanctioned tournament of the year. It was with the new "major"-atom division, and they showed me a sheet from Ted Montgomery with our new instructions for the "Young Player Development" rules.
http://www.hamiltonboard.org/obapersontopersonrule.pdf I can say right now that I don't like it. I think it's tough enough worrying about everything in the rulebook, now they're tacking on making sure that everyone is playing man to man. But if anyone fully understands this I have a few questions. A1 is still in the back-court, all 4 other A players are being legally guarded. B1 who is the only B player without a person is standing under the basket, is this legal or not?? A1 and A2 are in the back-court. A1 has the ball, and no one is guarding A1, A2 is being closely guarded by B2. B1 is in the 2 point area. Now I've got the coach of A screaming at me that if B's gonna press they have to put someone on the ball. Now I can't find that anywhere in those sheets, does anyone have a definite answer on that?? Thanks On another note: AAAA Girls OFSAA, Gold medal game, great job done by a great crew. One guy from Hamilton and one guy from K/W, kick ***. Go KNIGHTS!!! |

ref18: I have not read the URL that you posted but tell Ted I said hello. I haven't been able to make the last two IAABO conferences so I haven't seen him in a year. He is a good man. MTD, Sr. |
I've actually never met him, it was just his name on the letter :D

there's gotta be a ref somewhere in Ontario who has an opinion about this.

The requirement to maintain a guarding position applies only inside the 3 point line in the front court. Quote:
Possibly contact your board interpreter and clarify but that's the way I see it. Congrats Pat from KW |
