Just because a prone player is reaching out an pinnes the ball to the floor does not mean he is in control. Even though this article come at the end of this season, we need to practice ALL the concepts from this article in our future contests. Snaqwells, this article is my reference.
Why call traveling? It's the NBE.

You stated last May that:

I do recall reading some time ago that pinning the ball is not control.

Now, 9 months after I ask for your reference, you're offering an IAABO magazine article?

First, this is obviously not what you referenced in that post, unless this sportorial is a year old.

Second, as JR notes, it's not an authoritative document from the NFHS. You may as well have referenced an article from referee magazine.
