Dead ball contact: T or not?
Men's league, played under NFHS rules.
Team A has a throw-in under its basket. Before the ball is at the disposal of A1, the trail official calls a foul on A2 for pushing B2. The calling official said he did not know the ball was not live when he made the call. Case book says intentional contact while the ball is dead is a technical foul. "If other dead-ball contact is not intentional or flagrant, it should be ignored." (10.3.7) Now what? The foul was not intentional in the rules sense....but the official did not ignore it...because he did not know the ball was not live. Do we say "inadvertent whistle" and administer the throw-in again? Or must it be a technical foul for dead ball contact? |

I dont really see going with an IW here, though. It was obviously enough contact to warrant a whistle, so it would be tough to go back & say there was no foul. The status of the ball was what it was, adjudicate properly.

Except that is not what the rule says.
10-3-7 "Intentionally or flagrantly contacting an opponent when the ball is dead..." It is not mere "illegal contact" during a dead ball that requires the technical foul. The official should have ignored the contact since it was not intentional nor flagrant. That is what the case book says. But since the official called a foul.... |

Fixed that for you.
Sorry for touching your quote...

The casebook is clear: ignore the contact unless it is intentional or flagrant. If you blow the whistle by mistake, then an "oops, my bad" seems to be the proper call. |
