three point 3 person question

[mutantducky]

so who signals this. Is it always the trail? I was at a game where the girl was more on the side of the trail person and he signaled three pointer but the center ref(no three point signal) had a view of it as did I in the stands on the trail side but free throw line extended. The girl was about a foot inside the line. Both feet were in. Awful job of guessing by the trail ref who was in no position at all to make the call. Luckily she missed. I say luckily because the game would have been tied. How would they have handled this? if she made it, do they blow the whistle right away to talk it over? You can't just let the play go on and time goes out and then you take away a point.

I was always taught that C would blow there whistle, signal 2 and resume from there. No need to get together to talk about it.

The Lead or Center gives the preliminary depending on where the shot comes from (Using the 60/40 court coverage for example). If it is good, the other gives the "made" signal to mirror who gave the preliminary.

If your partner signals a three and you know it was a two, blow your whistle and fix it immediately.

The OP concerns 3-person, and your answer 2-person.

For 3-person: T has the 3-point arc from the end line up around to the lane line extended, which marks C's PCA. C has it from there down to the endline. One official signals the try; both signal a made 3-point goal. L can signal a 3-point try in transition, and T & C mirror if it's made.

For 2-person, T has the arc from the end line all the way around to the foul line extended. L has it from there down to the end line. T mirrors L's signal on a made 3-point goal; L does not mirror.

But the question was: what should C do about a blown 3-point call by T? Same as any other blown call: hit the whistle, give T your info, let T change the call.

Those are the two options. Use what's used in your area (and discuss in pre-game if you aren't sure).

Here, we use the former. As C, I would be unlikely to see this at FT line extended on the opposite side. L might have had a look.

how long do you have to change this? Better to whistle right away obviously. I was at this Pacific forum and saw this.

BTW, I STILL don't understand how the Flames' first basket of the OT period (a trey) was reclassified as a two AFTER Bear Creek scored the next basket at the other end. I didn't know that was possible. Turned out not to be the difference. But disconcerting nonetheless."

No....No need to relay info and let T change the call. Simply blow your whistle and signal strongly to the table that the shot was 2 points and play on. Not the same as a blown OOB call where calling official changes his/her call.

Maybe, maybe not. Check local listings to see how it's done in your area.

2 person answer? I didn't know a 2 whistle crew had a Centre.
