30- and 60-second time-outs

Also, I know 5-12-5 requires players to remain standing during the 30. The confines of the bench area is similarly defined as in the NCAA in 1-13-3 and both 30s and 60s have to be conducted there. Nothing about players having to be on the court, just standing. That's the myth I was referring to.

The real question I have has to do with other team personnel, which Nevada picked up on.

And your real question was clarified by the NFHS back in the 2001-02 Comments on the Rules Revisions. It was longer ago than I thought. That was the year that the NFHS added the requirement that players must remain standing during a 30-second time-out.


REQUIREMENT TO STAND DURING 30-SECOND TIME-OUT (5-12-5):
To clarify and ensure consistent interpretation, during a 30-second time-out, players shall remain standing and on the floor in the vicinity of their team bench. Additional discussion reflected concerns about some states not enforcing the 'no cheerleaders' on the floor during a 30-second time-out and whether or not substitutes should be permitted to join the conference with the coach(es) and players. Because of instructions that may be given, the interpretation has been that team substitutes should be able to participate in the time-out meeting.
A reminder that teams must be prepared and leave the huddle when the 10-second warning signal is sounded.

*Note the warning signal was changed to 15 seconds prior to the end of the time-out period in the 2007-08 season.


Good job, Rich. You gave the coach the proper ruling.

Good job, Rich. You gave the coach the proper ruling.

Except for the part where they are to remain "on the floor." I did miss that.

I emailed the coach. She will probably think I'm crazy for including a 7-year-old passage, but I think she deserved a better answer than I gave her last night, although I was pretty much correct.

YOU'RE crazy?!?! How about me?

I knew that I had read the ruling before and also exactly where to find it! Sometimes I'm amazed at how my own mind works. It shouldn't be long before BillyMac comes along to tell me how sick it is that I can come up with a seven year-old ruling in just a few minutes.

And when he does, I'll second it.

Shut up.

I think the myth comes about because during the interval to replace a DQ'd player, the coach can talk to the players but the other team members may not stand.

Sounds right, but, as usual, for me, citation please.

I never said that you were "sick". I just think that it's an amazing ability. Wish I cold do the same.
