no comment about the warning horn times? I thought that would be right up your alley!

[chseagle]

The only time I've heard of sounding the horn :15 secs. before the end is on TOs & replacements, not for pregame or halftime.

That would be a long period on the bench for the teams if the horn sounded 3 minutes before the game/halftime ended.

I thought you had a rules book? Read it. And, what you seem to think constable said, is not what he said.

And, no one said the teams need to be on the bench from the time the "three minute warning" sounded.

He wasn't talking about on a foul so much as points scored when there is no immediate whistle.

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that players are required to go to their benches at the "warning horn." Not true. Also, there's no requirement for a horn at 1:00.

2-12-2, 2-12-4

Note 2-12-4 states to sound it 15 seconds before the expiration of any intermission.

[chseagle]

The :15 second warning horn for intermissions is only between quarters, not before the game or end of halftime.

If the horn is to sound :15 secs. prior to the start of the game/3rd quarter, then every timer is guilty & it's not enforced.

2-12-2 is the timer notifying the scorer that they need to be at the table, however 9.95 times out of 10 the scorer is at the table.

No, it's not. Do you have a rule reference? Note I'm not asking how it's practiced in your area, I'm asking if you have a rule reference that tells you the :15 horn is only for quarters.

The :15 horn I've only heard between quarters, not before the game or at end of halftime (was the same way when I was Boys' Basketball Manager 10+ years ago).

The only reference found is 2-12-4, however during halftime we sound the minute horn before expiration, not once have been told to sound the horn at :15, except for between quarters.

For Varsity games, the clock never runs down to :00.0 during pregame, as when the minute horn sounds the teams are at benches & introductions are started with the clock reset to 8:00.

Looks like I'll have to e-mail Cindy Adsit & ask what the state's interpretation is.

Don't bother:

2-12-4: Sound a warning signal 15 seconds before the expiration of an
intermission or a 60-second charged time-out and at 15 seconds of a 30-second
time-out, immediately after which the players shall prepare to be ready to resume
play, and signal again at the end of the intermission or time-out.

2-12-5: Sound a warning signal 15 seconds before the expiration of the 20
seconds (maximum) permitted for replacing a disqualified or injured player, or
for a player directed to leave the game.

Connecticut Halftime Mechanics: Timer is instructed to set clock at nine minutes and to run it down. Notify both teams, and the officials, at the three minute mark. When the horn sounds after the nine minutes, set the clock for one minute, with a warning horn after forty-five seconds, and a final horn at the end of the one minute. At this time both teams should be ready to play.

We've been doing it this way for about 15-20 years.

This sounds way easier than how doing things now.
