Help with a rule.
I've been out here lurking for a few years. I know some of you can be quite hard on people that "should" know the answer to their own questions. So, please don't beat me up if I should know the answer to this.
A1 tries to make a pass to A2 but for some reason completely misses and throws the ball hard directly in the face of her defender B1. She didn't do it on purpose but it was excessive. Can you call an intentional foul on A1? If not, do you call anything? Thanks! |

This is a play on. For an intentional foul during a live ball, contact is required. If you thought the player intentionally threw the ball at a players face, an unsporting technical foul could be called (a case for a flagrant technical foul could also be made).

What they said.
NLR, never be afraid to make a fool of yourself on an online message board, particularly when most of us are anonymous. It's far better to screw something up here than on the court. |

It's not a personal foul. A personal foul is a player foul which involves illegal contact with an opponent. Hitting someone with a ball is NOT contact with that opponent. If you make this call, it's an unsporting NON-CONTAT technical foul. Flagrant would depends on the severity of the situation.

Stoopid people get beat up. There's nothing stoopid about you or your question. Welcome to the forum.

The same concept is used on a throw-in. The ball is live on a throw-in and if a defender reaches OOB to touch the ball, it's a technical foul by rule. If the defender reaches OOB and makes illegal physical contact with the thrower though, it would be an intentional personal foul by rule. It's not a bad idea when someone tells you that you're wrong by rule to take a minute to actually open the rule book and check out the pertinent rule before disagreeing.

You're calling personal fouls here since the ball is live? JR has given you the rule references.
