NCAA Block/Charge Definition
This is from the NCAA Rule book pg 67
A.R. 7. (Women) B1 is standing directly under (a) the cylinder or (b) the backboard before A1 jumps for a layup. The forward momentum of airborne shooter A1 causes A1 to run into B1. RULING: In both (a) and (b), B1 is not in a legal guarding position. Blocking foul on B1. Could someone explain why this is a block? Where in the book (besides here) does it say that B1 is not in legal guarding position because she is under the basket? It says that this is a charge for Mens. Here is the mens: A.R. 6. (Men) B1 is standing under the basket before A1 jumps for a layup. The forward momentum of A1 causes contact with B1. RULING: B1 is entitled to the position provided that there was no movement into such position by B1 after A1 leaped from the floor. When the ball goes through the basket before the contact occurs, the contact shall be ignored unless B1 has been placed at a disadvantage by being unable to rebound when the shot is missed or unable to put the ball in play without delay, when the try is successful. When the contact occurs before the ball becomes dead, a charging foul has been committed by A1. When B1 moves into the path of A1 after A1 has left the floor, the foul shall be on B1. It shall be an intentional foul when a player moves into the path of an airborne opponent with the intent to undercut and contact results. When the moving player moves under the airborne opponent and there is danger of severe injury as a result of the contact, it shall be a flagrant personal foul on the moving player. |

Found it:
Apendix III Section 12b (Women’s) Legal Defense The defender is entitled to any spot on the playing court she desires, provided that she gets to that spot first, without contact with an opponent. A defender who establishes a position directly under the cylinder or behind the backboard when a dribbler becomes an airborne shooter is not in a legal guarding position, regardless if she got to the spot first. If contact occurs, the official must decide whether the contact is incidental or a foul has been committed by the defender. Exception: When a dribbler takes a path to the basket parallel with the end line, the defender’s position directly under the cylinder or behind the backboard is a legal guarding position and, if contact occurs, the official must decide whether the contact is incidental or a foul has been committed by the dribbler or airborne shooter |

Not liking a rule doesn't mean I think its stupid. I don't like the NFHS rule requiring free throw lane folks to stay put until the ball hits the rim/backboard. I also don't really like the 5 second closely guarded rule while dribbling. I can also give you a few others, but I don't think these rules are stupid. The above one is. |

![]() The rule is there because someone felt it was necessary. Some people do not feel you are playing defense at that position. You do not have to agree with it, but the last time I checked no one asked you or me why a rule should be in place or not be in place. Peace

And I'm not sure why you are confused by the "dribbler" part...if the person is dribblling the ball, they are a dribbler. If they are catching a pass and turning to shoot, they aren't dribbling, are they? The rule applies to drives to the basket and secondary defenders stepping in to draw a charge under the basket. |

Also this rule says "directly under", which IMO leaves alot of grey area. This is why the NBA has the restricted area marked with a line. |

And why would directly under the basket cause any more confusion than the use of the word "dribbler"...how can there be gray area - are you under the basket or behind the backboard? Then it's either a no-call or a block...pretty simple. |

Why would you not be playing defense when you are "directly" under the basket, but you are playing defense when you are inches away from being directly under the basket? Quote:
If you like the rule, fine. But I think its stupid. |

And as for Aggie not liking the rule and thinking it's stupid - ok. But to pick at it because you can't figure out what a "dribbler" is...well, that's not very intelligent either. |
