3 part question 1 of 3
How would you handle the following situation? Boys MS 7th grade followed by 8th grade. I arrive at the gym at the basket can not be lowered. So the AD decides to play cross court. There is no center line. The one end line is at the wall. The bleachers are two feet off the other end line. Do you play the games or not?

Do the best that you can.
I never had to deal with something like that except for during the summer. And even thing we judge where the line would be based on how the court is drawn. No big deal. Peace

If you are that worried about the safety, do not play the game. But I would not think you would be much more liable than the people that want to play under those conditions.
Peace

As for the division line, here is what the NFHS has said to do: 1998-99 NFHS Basketball Rules Interpretations SITUATION 2: A "bobcat, jaguar, wildcat, bronco, cougar, mustang, etc." logo was painted in the center restraining circle, with no contrasting 2-inch-wide dividing line in existence where the logo was painted. The referee permits play to begin without the dividing line being marked. RULING: Incorrect. Play shall not commence until the visible midcourt dividing line is marked. (1-3-2) SITUATION 3: A "bobcat, jaguar, wildcat, bronco, cougar, mustang, etc." logo was painted in the center restraining circle, with no contrasting 2-inch-wide dividing line in existence where the logo was painted. The referee permits play to begin without the dividing line being marked. The game is to be officiated by a three-person crew and the three assigned officials agree they will be able to accurately cover the floor, even without the visible midcourt dividing line. RULING: Without exception, and with no consideration for uniqueness of design, play shall not commence until the visible midcourt dividing line is marked. (1-3-2) 2000-2001NFHS Basketball Rules Interpretations SITUATION 16: The home team had its floor re-painted in the off-season with its school mascot painted in the middle of the floor. The mascot is painted over the division line, so that the line is obstructed and not clearly visible. RULING: There is no penalty accessed to the home team. Every effort shall be made by home management to place a line (temporary or permanent) on the floor. If a temporary line is placed on the floor, precautions should be taken with the substance used to minimize the risk of injury to players and officials. Every effort should be made to play the game. The official should notify the state association of the situation. COMMENT: If you are aware of a facility in which this could occur, contact your state high school association to determine how the situation should be handled in your state. (1-3-2) |
