Can two different players shoot the free throws for a technical foul? ie, A1 shoots first throw and misses so coach puts A2 at the line to shoot 2nd throw. How about A1 shoots first throw and misses so coach subs A6 in to shoot 2nd throw?

NF 8-3. Attempting Technical-Foul Free Throws

.....The coach or captain shall designate the free
thrower(s).


The fact that it says "thrower(s)" indicates there can be more than one during the two free throws.

However, no more than one player can attempt a single free throw.

That's just your interp, Mark. I don't see anything in the Fed book that prevents it so it must be legal. You and Bruce may call the shots for the TBA, but out here in NFHS-land, we have the Lord High Rules Committee, and that's who we submit to. Look on their website. Do you see any interp or memo that prevents more than one player from attempting a single free throw? Of course not. Because they never intended to make it illegal. I mean, let's use some common sense here, what rule fundamental is violated by letting more than one player attempt a single free throw? You're just being overly officious if you try to make this rule hold up. Let 'em play, I say! Try not to interrupt the flow of the game. Don't be so over-controlling!

Juulie's body has been taken over by the spirit of Nevadaref. Call the exorcist.

What if there's a FT violation on the defensive team, and the FT misses?

I haven't seen this yet (I would use the word "never", but I know that'd do me in the next game I call). Wonder how much the crowd would be barking if I coach did this!

Since there's no one on the lane, the violation would have to be for a player breaking the three point line or coming below the free throw line extended. That's really, really, really dumb on a technical free throw since there can't be any rebound.

There is at least one other way a defensive player can violate on a technical free throw. Any guesses?

Disconcertion.

No one's answered my question yet, though.

So much for sparking interest and getting people to look through the rulebook.
