"Three seconds, Ref...! Three seconds!"
In a 14-15yr old youth league game this morning, that uses NFHS rules as a foundation, the Coach (who's team is currently on defense) is incessantly yelling "Three seconds, Ref...! Three seconds!" while the offensive team is shooting, rebounding, shooting, rebounding... all under the basket, in the lane.
4-12-3 says a team is in control until a try for goal. 9-7-1 says a player shall not remain for three seconds in (lane)... while ball is in control of his team. So, if the ball is constantly in a state of control/non-control (the shooting, rebounding, shooting part), then it would seem by these definitions that everybody can stand in the lane for as long as they want while repetitive shot attempts and offensive rebounds are occuring. In other words, this coach was really getting on my nerves by screaming "Three seconds, Ref! Three seconds!..." every time (which seemed quite often) this flurry of repetitive shot attempts and subsequent offensive rebounds occured. So for my own sanity (and maybe a little moral support ![]() Thanks, Paul |
