Hi. I am only 21 so be nice. I am reffing an Intramural game at my University for IMs tomorrow. I have a question...

If Player A goes to shoot a 3. Then player B jumps to block the shot, but while jumping extends his legs towards the shooter (acting like he is about to kick the guy), what is the call?

Thanks,

Bryan

If B1 feigns to kick A1, then you could call a technical foul...without contact that's the only call you could make.

Best of luck with your game and let us know how it goes!

I forgot to add, if the act is incidental, not done on purpose and part of the defender's blocking motion, then there's no call on that play.

Cheers...

Thanks for the reply. Thats what I thought the ruling was. It is not part of his "natural blocking motion" b/c he only does it when out of position and jumping towards a guy shooting a 3, other times he ducks like he is going to undercut the guy.
