Court markings every court needs to have?

According to Rule 1 every court is supposed to have specific markings, yet some of those required markings are missing.

What markings that are required are not seen/used?

What can be done to make those required markings?

Are there any penalties for not having required markings?

Land Of Steady Habits Only "Special" Rule ...

Coaching Box must be marked. If home coach and/or home management refuse to designate coaching box
with tape, the home team will not use a coaching box for that game. However, the visiting team will be
allowed a coaching box. Notify Board Secretary, or Commissioner the next day.

Connecticut-only rule. I'm clarifying, Billy, in case someone doesn't happen to read your headlines.

Eagle, talk to your AD. How are we supposed to know the process for getting your court markings changed?

What rules code and what markings?

In some areas, for FED the official writes the state.

(And, to be clear, it doesn't really matter for teh C-level game in the back gym).

If it's an issue to you, take it up with the AD. Or, just be sure it gets covered the next time the floor is refinished.

The Coaching Box would me marked in Day-Glo green and would also include a wireless electric fence similiar to a wireless dog fence and every time the Head Coach would step out of the Coaching Box boundary he would get shocked because he would be wearing my patent-pending device that I use to break, I mean teach, new basketball officials to not watch the ball and to officiate off the ball when it is not in their primary.

Clarification: 1-13-2 (Coaching Box) & 1-17 ("X" locates scorer)

Concerning back/secondary gym: Last year there were Varsity games played there due to the main gym having another event happening. Same can be said for this year.

(I realize that different states have different regs about the coaching box)

These questions I was thinking of while watching ESPN yesterday & remembering that not all gyms here in the area have the X marking.

I'm not meaning these questions towards one school, am asking cause of knowing multiple schools in potential violation(s).

Thumbs up

Another reason I love our local kids rec league - no coaching box. It's one of the advantages of having a bunch of refs on the Board.

I asked this as was wondering if a school could be penalized in some way for not having the markings, by a floor official, or does that vary by state.

In the grand scheme of things, having the x marked for substitutes and having the coach's box (unless your in Connecticut apparently) is not important at all.

I guess an official could call the game off because the floor wasn't properly marked? Find me an official that does that, and you'll find an official that will not be working anymore.
