Saying that, as I do not officiate games under NF rules, this is an actual rule? FIBA does not address this.

Though to me (if I were a coach) it'd be common sense to have the player (male or female) head to the locker room to change. I guess some young people these days are less modest then when I was in HS.

Some gyms around here, it's like a mile hike to get to the locker room. I would allow the player to use a bathroom with the coach going out into the hallway with him/her, or to use a nearby storage room to change. What do you guys think?

EDIT: Just noticed everyone is saying "visual confine of the gymnasium". So that answers my question that they just have to leave the gym to change. If a girl wants to change out in the hallway, I just hope it doesn't end up on youtube
