Team is not ready after half time
 

What's the exact process?

Put 1 minute on the clock and if there not there it's a technical. What if there not there when they finish shooting free throws? What if 4 players are there?

If there are 4 players you can go. As long as it's not at the start of the game the team may play with as few as 2 players. At the start of the 1st QTR the team must have 5 players though.

For the process, I don't know. But I'd bet there are lots of people here who do know :P
do somebody know the fiba process? I belive it's a Coach T for Delay of Game but I'm not sure.

NFHS rules.

Don't shoot the FT's for the "T" until you have both teams on the court. That means 5 players each. The "T" is under R10-1-9 and that says that <b>all</b> players have to return to the court.

If they're not there after a minute, call the "T" and get someone to go get 'em. If they still delay, you have the option of a forfeit, but that's a last resort.

If they have 5 players available, they have to play with 5. If the coach comes with 4 players and says everyone else is vomiting in the locker room, we play on.

A team can play with as few as one player as long as they still have a chance to win.

True enough. Inbound passes get pretty tricky, tho'.

Not if 5 are available.

From our rules interpreter this morning discussing the exact situation. Since it is after an intermission, we must use the resumption-of-play procedure first. Further delay would result in the technical and/or forfeit depending.

At the same time, we discussed what the officials were doing (or not doing) during the last minutes of the intermission. By rule, the referee needs to have both teams notified at the 3 minute mark (2-4-4). It was suggested that at the 1 minute mark, make another attempt to find out if the absent team was notified.

Tell your rule interpreter to read case book play 10.1.9COMMENT- "The resumption of play procedure is in effect to start the second half unless either team is not on the court. In that case, regular delay provisions are in force".

Then find a new rules interpreter.:)

Thanks for the point in the right direction Jurassic. Actually, I learn more about the rules of this game right here and this just proves the point.
