Long time lurker-infrequent poster. I had to share my camp experience: I had a great experience at a HS camp. I got yelled at for ball watching, and once for not calling an intentional foul. I saw the contact, but didn’t see the push in the back at the lead. I took the blame for getting straight-lined. My partner at the C bailed me out with the intentional call.
My clinician was retired NBA official Ron Olesiak. My partners and I jelled after the first half of the first game, and he recommended us for varsity games to our assignor. Wow! Ron then asked us to stay after our last game to talk advanced officiating for a few minutes. This turned into a one hour personal clinic. We covered RSBQ, continuation, block/charge, verticality, and types of contact that warrant a foul plus a great deal more. It was Fantastic! ![]() |

If the contact (when the defender is at fault) acts to disrupt the dribblers rhythm, speed, balance, or quickness it is a foul. I'm sure you've seen plays where a dribbler goes to turn a corner and there is a bump. If you see that bump impact the rhythm that the dribbler established before the contact then you should call the foul. If you see the dribbler slow down from the contact such that the defender gains the advantage you should call the foul. If the dribbler loses balance, then it's a foul. And if a dribblers quickness is neutralized by the contact, then there is a foul. On the other hand, if the dribbler is able to work through the contact and get to where he/she wanted to go on the floor without a sufficient disruption, then the contact can be ruled incidental and you play on. I hope this helps. |

HANDS OFF: -defenders are not permitted to have hands on the dribbler. - no displacement of a cutter. - the measuring of an opponent(tagging) is hand checking, is not permitted and is a FOUL.*(NFHS emphasis, not mine) - Use of a forearm, regardless of the duration of the contact, is a FOUL. *(again NFHS emphasis) - hand checking is not incidental contact; it gives a tremendous advantage to the person illegally using their hands. - this applies to both offensive and defensive players. - principles involved in incidental contact (Rule 4-27) apply. It's usually accepted that a defender can put one hand on the dribbler/cutter/post player if they take it right off again without displacing that dribbler/cutter/post player. Two hands on a dribbler/cutter/post player is an automatic foul, displacement or not. The same POE, which was was issued for about 3 years in a row, also talked about defensive contact during post play and contact during screens. And also note that that the NBA, NCAA and NFHS have all issued recent memos about not letting dribblers get "bumped". The "bumping" has been ignored too much in their collective opinions. They all felt that too much illegal contact was being let go on dribblers under the guise of "incidental" contact. Last edited by Jurassic Referee; Mon Jun 28, 2010 at 12:00pm. |

He gave me (and this was a first for me) the big "PHOOEY ON YOU" - turned head and waved hand at me. It was awesome, I must say. ![]() Last edited by DLH17; Mon Jun 28, 2010 at 12:59pm. |

I whacked a coach this season for that. He asked for an explanation, I started to give him one and then he gave me the dismissive wave. I channeled my inner-Snaqs and brewed some T.

I'm curious how others here on the forum might have handled the situation based on the info provided. |

HTBT... that could be T-worthy ... and might not be as well.

Thanks to Hornets and Jurassic for the explanations. Jurassic, your asterisks strike me curious, though. |

Good feedback.
Let's elevate this a little bit and insert this situation into a regular season and/or post season varsity game. Same logic applies? Or, does the levity, etc of the game change things a bit? |

RichMSN and J Rut +1
Ron's clinic time was devoted to HS ball he made sure we understood this. He also agreed with Rich that too many fouls are called on the floor. ( This term does not appear in any rule or case book) |
