Coach,
I'm glad that you strive to teach your team the rules of the game along with the physical skills to play it. I would recommend that you get Tony to give you his backcourt quiz so that you can borrow some plays from that as well. Also, you should teach your kids the four-points system that we use as a basic checklist for backcourt violations.

Lastly, all of the answers that you provided above are correct. However, and it is unfortunate, but I frequently see #9 called a violation.

The one that trips most of them up is #5. Probably because it sounds like a trick question after reading #4. I tried the "4 points" also, but the quiz with demonstration seemed to click in more girls.

My biggest thing a couple years ago was they assumed almost EVERYTHING was a violation. Meaning if the ball crossed the line, they were toast and would give up on the play while the defense gets an easy 2.

I saw #10 happen in a boys JV. The kid picked up his dribble, both feet in the BC, established left foot as pivot, touched his right foot in the FC, then back in the BC. After realizing he did this, and not waiting for the whistle that wasn't coming, he just dropped the ball and walked away. Easy 2.

"Giving up" is never the right answer. If you recover the ball, either you get to keep it, or it's a violation and the other team will get it, but at least you get to set your defense. And, if you touch it soon enough, the throw-in will be from above the FT line (instead of below it or on the end-line), which lessens the chance of scoring

I agree and this is probably why players think it's going to be a backcourt violation and don't recover the ball, because there are officials and I hate to say many, but more then enough call it a violation.
