Someone please help me understand and define a hop step. This has become so popular and is it a travel? From my understanding the player must come down on both feet at the same time and then either release a shot or pass before taking another step. I dunno....I usually call it traveling if the player drives the lanes does the hop step thing...Then the coach proceeds to give me the "What did he do? look. Some clarification please.

Read up on the traveling rule: 4-43-2-a.3 and 4-43-2-b.2. Also see case 4.43.2
Hope that helps! Chuck

Come down from what ??? Recieveing a pass??? If that's the case and he comes down on both feet at the same time then he has not established a pivot foot. Either foot may become the pivot.

If the player is in the air when s/he ends the dribble and lands on both feet, either may be the pivot. If the player is in the air when s/he ends the dribble and lands on one foot, the player may jump off that foot and land on both simultaneously. Neither may be the pivot. If the player ends the dribble on one foot, the player may jump off that foot and land with both feet simultaneously. Neither may be the pivot. |

Just to be absolutely clear...
Quote:
Rule 4, Section 65. Traveling Art. 5. After coming to a stop when neither foot can be the pivot foot: a. One or both feet may be lifted, but may not be returned to the playing court, before the ball is released on a pass or try for goal; b. Neither foot shall be lifted, before the ball is released, to start a dribble. [Edited by Lotto on Feb 23rd, 2003 at 05:38 AM] |
