Coach: "wasn't that a handcheck? At the meeting they said it was a handcheck!"
Me: "did you hear my whistle?" Coach: "no" There's yer sign!

Thanks, bob. I don't have my old rule book anymore. Can anyone post the wording bob's talking about?

Hand-checking. Defenders are not permitted to have hands on the dribbler or offensive players away from the ball. Hand-checking is not incidental contact; it gives a tremendous advantage to the person using illegal hands/tactics. An offensive player who uses his/her hands or body to push off in order to create a more favorable position has committed a foul. Regardless of where it happens on the floor, when a player: 1) Continuously places a hand on the opposing player – it is a foul. 2) Places both hands on a player – it is a foul. 3) Continuously jabs a hand or forearm on an opponent – it is a foul.

I read your post yesterday Rut, It helped put it into context for me. Tried to focus more on the affects of contact in my JV game earlier tonight. I felt I did a better job at letting them play, but felt that more than a couple of times I "fell asleep at the switch"....missed/passed on something I should have called and got myself in a hole. VC in my ear a lot, especially when I went to report a foul. Don't want to digress....just got to keep working at it. |

Rather, it gives examples of how hand checking creates an illegal advantage and thus why hand checks need to be called more. Helping officials recognize advantage/disadvantage is different from announcing "automatic" fouls, IMO. Officials and coaches should not interpret this kind of statement as endorsing an "automatic" foul independent of advantage/disadvantage.

I've been consistently applying RSBQ thinking to all situations like this during the season and it's really worked for me. I don't know if I've had more hand checks or other fouls committed against dribblers, but I know better where my line is.
Coming to the end of the first half last night, I had a dribbler start towards the hoops and was directed away from the basket and I called a hand-check foul. It was just too much. The visiting coach said there's gotta be more there to work with and I let him make his comments -- the funny part is they had a foul to give and he subbed in to let this kid ride the kid and hoped he could have his cake and eat it too, I guess. |

The FED is telling us through that POE that those examples are no-brainers. There's no judgment required at all and they ARE automatic foul calls. They emphasized that by issuing the statement that "hand-checking is NOT incidental contact." By stating that, they took the guesswork right out of the call. You can either follow the FED's direction or decide not to. My recommendation is to check locally and then follow their direction. |

1. New official, afraid to blow the whistle. 2. Not-as-new official, calls virtually everything he sees. 3. Discovers A/D, starts applying it but tends to let too much pass. 4. Begins to settle into an understanding of how to apply, improvement is steady at this point.
