Help Please
I had a scrimmage and I was telling another official not to ave a 5-second count as lead (when ball is live) I know I am correct but I cna't find it in the manual anywhere. Can someone give me some direction on where to find it so I can pass it on. He was still unsure when I told him.
Thanks |

I know that is very odd to see, but if he is in the paint, there is no need for a 5 second count. Closely guarded can be anywhere in the front court, outside the paint. Of course in the paint, you get a 3 second violation first!

I was taught to never have a visual count as the lead and I never count as the lead. If the ball is coming from outside the paint, the T should have the count in most cases. That's just the way it's done in my area.

In HS, I believe that the Lead does have the closely guarded count in his/her primary. |

Also, later in the same chapter, "All officials have the responsibilty to call plays they clearly see away fron their primary areas of responsibilty." Most of our Association's senior officials say that lead should not be counting for closely guarded during three man mechanics.

I'm curious as to what other people do in HS as well. I've also been told by many veteran officials that the L never has that count. My question to them as always been, "If the ball is in your primary, then who is supposed to have the count? If the T, for example, has the count, then are you advocating two sets of eyes in your primary?" No one has been able to answer that, other than to say that it's never been an issue. Granted, it is rarely an issue, given the coverage areas in HS. More often than not, the ball gets knocked away or passed out quickly if it's on the block or in the paint. But if I'm the R, I will mention in the pre-game that the L should have that count if it's in their primary.

Maybe we need to have that discussion again about if something is not specifically mentioned, is it allowed, or not allowed?
