What are you going to do when, eventually, that ball springs off the net like a trampoline on each of 2-3 trys by the team. The coach is going to be legitimately furious that you didn't fix the net when it should have been fixed and his team is now without a deserved bucket. Quote:

If the FED wanted officials to stop play every time a net hung up, it would be listed to do so in rule 6-7. It isn't. |

LOL! Exactly. That's all you have. The net has not been removed. It's still suspended from the ring, even if part of it is flipped up. You have nothing that says to stop the game and play with the net.
Congratulations!

Yup, that makes a whole buncha sense. You and Nevada can follow that one, Camron. I'll go by rule 6-7. |

No one has yet address my question of a breakaway rim not returning to it's normal position after a dunk...one around here did that for a while until the school replaced it. Are you maintaining that since no rule says to fix it, that you'll play with the heavily tilted rim until the next natural whistle? Tough luck for the team that has to shoot at it unless they want to burn a timeout???? I can't believe you'd not stop the game to fix the rim and if you do stop the game, what rule are you using to do so? You can't do so and remain consistent with the net issue. If you fix one, you have to fix the other for the same reason.

Again, using your logic, are you going to stop the game every time the net is hit by a player so that it is no longer suspended vertically 15-18" below the ring? And if not, why not? Don't you believe in the rule being applied equitably and consistently the entire game? Iow, do you advocate calling the rule only some of the time, not all of the time? Btw, I'm sure if the FED hadda agreed with your interpretation of 1-10-1, it woulda found it's way into R6-7. |

Check out 7-8... Timeout occurs and the clock, if running, shall be stopped when and official: Art. 2....Stops play: d. For any other situations or an emergency. There it is....a rule that gives me authority to stop the clock and fix the net.

This happened twice in a recent game. Both times there was a whistle from the old trail/new lead [otherwise known as my unpatched partner] after made baskets. My approach is to fix it the next time there is a dead ball at that end. I don't blow a whistle when a kid has his shirt untucked or his mouthguard out, I take care of it at the next dead ball. I put the netting slightly out of kilter in the same category with the exception that I am not marching down to the other end to fix it at the next dead ball.
