throw-in bounce pass hits line
On a throw in, the thrower makes a bounce pass along
the out of bounds line, and the ball bounces on the line, then into the court, where it is caught by a teammate of the thrower. Has the thrower commited a violation? I say yes because of the red text below, but I have never seen it called. I passed on it in a game last night and a player questioned me. 8-6-2 The throw-in starts when the ball is at the disposal of a player of the team entitled to the throw-in. The thrower shall release the ball on a pass directly into the court, except as in 7-5-7, within five seconds after the throw-in starts. The throw-in pass shall touch another player (inbounds or out of bounds) on the court before going out of bounds untouched. The throw-in pass shall not touch a teammate while it is on the out-of-bounds side of the throw-in boundary plane. |

rsl - the part in red is your answer, if you remember "the court" is considered inbounds, and the boundary lines are considered OOB.

But there is no rule about a throwin player bouncing the ball out of bounds. So I would think that the bounce pass (which bounced on the line hence is out of bounds) is not a violation. Comments please. One could also discuss the situation when the ball accidently rolls inbound after the throw in has teh ball?

(An accidental roll to inbounds will have me reset everything.) Remember that the game is played INbounds. The out-of-bounds cases are special cases. Just make the call - that's why you get paid.

7-5-7
A throw-in anywhere along the end line after a goal or an awarded goal for basket interference or goaltending by a defensive player, as in 9-12 Penalty 1, the team not credited with the score shall make a throw-in from the end of the court where the goal was made and from any point outside the end line. a. Any player of the team may make a direct throw-in or he/she may pass the ball along the end line to a teammate(s) outside the boundary. |
