free throw

[Upward ref]

Went to observe my peers tues. night. BV; With about 5 mnutes left in the last quarter, during the first shot of a two shot free throw for visiting team, home HC has all 5 players huddle up for a short time out , (first two and last two lane spaces unoccupied) and then the home players return for the second shot . I'm looking for a violation signal but we play on instead . Am i correct ?

This should not have been allowed, period.

Instruct the coach that he needs to have two players on the lane. If he refuses, it's a T.

No, it's not a violation. You have a technical foul.

The first two lane space must be occupied by the opponents. The FTs cannot be shot without those spots being occupied.

It would be a violation following a timeout or intermission.

See case book play 9.1.2 Situation A.

OK , but there was no delay really.In my OP, A-1,2,3,4,5, all just rotted over to their bench before the first f t , then trotted on back and lined up for the second throw before it was administered. I've been studying and can't seem to find it in the tech. fouls, thats why I thought it was a violation. Rule 9-1 penalties don't address it ,other than mentioning 8-1-4-(c) restrictions. 8.1.4.c has a violation for "improper alignment" with an offensive player in a defensive lane space, not a T.
1) Would it be a team T, a direct on the coach or what? citation please
( I can't see a coach refusing after being told )Our assoc. teaches a lot of preventive officiating ,but what if my partner or I didn't think to warn the coach ? Or my partner or I administered the free throw too fast without warning the coach?


thanks

Sure there was. Team B has to occupy the bottom two lane spaces. In your play, we can't shoot until they do.

Direct team b to occupy the space and if they refuse, it is a team technical for delay of game. If you are coming out of a time out or intermission, you use the resumption of play procedure instead.

Case play 10.1.5 Situation C fits your play.

Very simply you do NOT administer the FT until the opponent occupies the two bottom spaces.

You ask for two players.

If you don't get them, it's a T.
