I mean, it's one thing to yell, "dead, dead, dead", but this was a bit much for me.
Disconsertion only applies during a freethrow and only warrants another freethrow if the disconcerted freethrow is missed. There is no other rules basis until you get to unsportsmanlike issues.

Nothing illegal there. Happens all the time here, all the girls teams yell BALL BALL BALL BALL BALL when they're closely guarding someone on the perimiter. It's stupid.

Anyone think I was out of line asking the coach to have the player tone it down a bit? Had it been a close game, I probably would not have said anything. But, IMO, the game was over and it was just pouring salt in wounds...didn't want to have a scrum on my hands.

We've had this discussion on this forum before. Consensus is - no one likes it; it's bothersome and can be annoying; heck, it gives me a headache sometimes - but, it's not against the rules - unfortunately.....

My question to a coach (for my education only) would be this - where did you learn this was an acceptable technique and why do you teach it? Pros, college, HS - don't do it. Why do you think it's ok? JMO

Edit - Also gets into the territory when a player "yells at another" as he goes up for a layup that we've discussed here before too. HEY! or MISS! How loud? In his ear? Unsporting?......T? Not against the rules...

Ball, ball, ball, is taught to let weak side defender with back to ball know where ball is, similar to dead, dead, dead, when defense, especially help lines are tightened.

That said, annoying.

what if instead of hey hey hey, it was just screaming, like really really loud screaming, right in their ear, point blank? Or maybe not even point blank, just screaming?

I have only T'd for yelling once and that was a player runing out towards a 3 point shotter yelling AAAAA. She had no chance of getting there in time and it was obvious it was only to distract the shooter... easy T
But in your case, ask her to tone it down, but I think it has to go VERY far to warrant a T

As I understand it, no Swedish word has repeated vowels (SAAB is an acronym).
