1.If airborne A1 passes the ball instead of shooting, he/she is still an airborne shooter as it relates to a player control foul.

Ooh, tought one. I'm going to have to say true.

2. During a dribble from backcourt to frontcourt, the ball is in the frontcourt when both feet of the dribbler or the ball touch the court entirely in the frontcourt.

False. Both feet AND the ball.

3. It is a technical foul for an opponent of the throw in team to reach across the boundry line and knock down a throw in pass.

False. Violation, not technical.

I'm only 60% sure about these answers. Good questions.

This would be false. It would however be a team control foul.

Correct

Incorrect. This is legal. Once the ball is released on a throw-in it is fair game.

This percentage goes down when you have to make a split second decision on the court. Keep up the studying!

Studying helps alot however it can not replace experience. Try to officiate as many games as you can. Rec league, youth league, etc. The level might not be what you want to do (varsity or higher) however many things will happen that you have never seen before! Something will come up that will make you think will what if this happened and you will be better off because of it. Just make sure you go into each game trying to work on something new (postioning, signals, etc.) Don't let your mechanics slack off during rec games because they will follow you into bigger games.

Also if you are serious about it then you should try and do it year round so that you don't forget rules, mechanics, everything .

Good luck in the future.
