Technical Foul Shots

Bizket786

I had this happen to me the other night while doing a JV game. My partner issued a technical foul and the coach picked someone to shoot the two free throws after that kid missed the first free throw he wanted to send in someone else to shoot the second. Is this legal? Me and my partner didn't think so, so we didn't allow it but now i am not so sure.

Per NCAA it is not legal. Not sure about Federation.

In Fed, it's perfectly legal. He can bring in a different shooter (even a sub if he wants to) to shoot each shot.

8.3.

Any player including an eligible substitute may attempt the FT's.

The play you describe is legal in NFHS.

The coach could even have one subtitute shoot the first FT and another sub shoot the second.

NCAA - 8-2-3 "Technical fouls - The free throws awarded because of any technical foul may be attempted by a player on the offended team, including an entering player, who shall be designated by the head coach or captain of the offended team; however, the same player shall shoot both free throws."

Yes. The rule, which I don't have handy says something like..."player(s)" shall shoot the FTs.
