30-Second Time-Out
NFHS Rules:
Rule 5, Section 12, Article 5: "Players shall remain standing within the confines of the bench area during a 30-second time-out". Rule 10, Section 4, Article 4c: "Bench personnel shall not stand in the team bench area and must remain seated except during a charged time-out, as in 5-12-5,". Rule 4, Section 34, Article 1: "A player is one of five team members who are legally on the court at any given time, except intermission". During a thirty-second time out, are bench personnel allowed to stand up during the charged time out, or are only the five players allowed to stand up ? I think that bench personnel are allowed to stand. Does anyone have any additional Rule Book, Case Book, Exam, or Refresher Exam citations to support my case or to support the answer that they are not allowed to stand up ?

Rule 5-12-5..."Players shall remain standing during the confines of the bench area during a 30-second time-out".
Rule 4-34-1..."A player is one of five team members who are legally on the court at any given time, except intermission". Is this an intermission? Nope. Are "bench personnel" also "players"? Nope, rule 4-34-2 separately defines bench personnel. Ergo, bench personnel sits and players must stand during a 30-second TO. |

10-4-4c says all bench personnel can stand during a timeout....without reference to the length of the timeout. All team members may participate in any timeout. Additionally, the coach may be substituing someone in and is not required to have them report until the 10 second reamining point. They do not become a player until they are brought into the game by the official. Are they not permitted in the huddle? The purpose of having the players stand is not to seperate them from the rest of the team but to facilitate getting them back on the floor more quickly so that play can be resumed. Having the bench personnel standing with them will have no effect whatsoever on this goal. If the bench personnel can't get 5-10 feet to their chair before the players get to the throwin spot, they wouldn't even be on the team.

Well, Camron, rule 5-12-5 says "players shall remain standing...during a 30-second time-out".
Are you prepared to call a technical foul on any member of the bench personnel that doesn't stand? Or do you simply tell them all that they must stand? And how can bench personnel remain standing if they weren't allowed to be standing before the 30-second TO was called? Somehow, I don't think that your logic is working very well either.

[QUOTE=BillyMac]NFHS Rules:

Don't overthink this one.The intent of this is to aviod delay in the teams coming out of a 30 second TO without delay. Some teams will try to drag this out, bring chairs on the courts, water, etc. The new clarified distinction between players and bench personnel does not infere that others than those on the floor at the time of the TO aren't allowed to participate in a TO huddle.

Citations Please ?
Official Forum members:
Please note the additional citation (thanks Jurassic Referee) and some added boldface edited to my original post. Thanks for the opinions, including some common sense (thanks refnrev), but I would really like some additional citations to support either side, Rule Book, Case Book, Exam, or Refresher Exam. I need some strong support for one side or another by Monday, October 30, 2006, for a New Members Clinic.

OBITUARY: THE SAD PASSING OF COMMON SENSE Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend,Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long Ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, life isn't always fair, and Maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouth wash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Panadol, sun lotion or a sticky plaster to a student; but, could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by three stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else is to Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended - his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing. So, no more common sense. Back to the rule book. |

Additionally, there is NO penalty specified for the players not standing. If they choose to sit, what is the call. Nothing!

Your answer is also the reason that these tests do more harm then good. Now you are going to have some young official that feels they have to go out of their way to enforce this and likely T someone up because of the way this test is worded. Every year I hear of an official that feels they need to take some extreme action based on something that was in the test. Because after all, most tests do not ask you how to actually enforce the rules, they only test whether you know what something means or the exact definition is. But that is a conversation for another day. Peace

Players must stand and they must remian in the bench area, meaning they cannot wander down to the opponent's bench area.
Bench personnel can stand during any charged TO but are not required too. The rules posted are the only references needed.
