Shot clock in HS game? Why not?
Perhaps we need to change the rules a little first. No more technical fouls for coaches. Instead, the officials would activate a 35 second shot clock, giving any official at the court 35 seconds to run to the changing room, grab a gun, return and shoot the HS coach. Gets the message to coaches, entertains the audience, and makes officials feel better about the game. I like the idea of having a SHOT clock in HS games.

I might be okay with a shot clock if it was at 45 or 50 seconds, but I think for a lot of girls' teams, even varsity, 35 seconds is just too short. |

It really makes you evenmore aware of the game clock as an official, especially at lower level games when a clueless parent is running the game and shot clock. Very good for your clock management skills when you move to higher levels.

Massachusetts uses a 30-second clock for all high school games. There are shot clock issues every year...but the same can be said for every other aspect of the game that we have to manage. It is absolutely no big deal to officiate a game with the shot clock. It rarely comes into play in a meaningful way....and when it does....we deal with it.

Some of the New England Prep School leagues use a shot clock (35 seconds for boys, 30 seconds for girls) in certain games.
The main problem I've seen is that there are no written rules for how the shot clock should be handled, so sometimes things get decided on the fly.
