I'm a division 3 official with TASO with 4 years experience behind me and I've called 50+ Varsity boys games. In this time I have never been in a game where a basket interference was called. I know that it is ust a matter of time however, so here is how I would handle it. I would whistle and stop the clock with open palm and then confidently flush the ball for 2 (or3) points (providing it was defensive interference) or would wave off any basket made if offensive interference. Then I would approach the table and report the basket interference along with the player's color and number. Then I would verbally and with the arm signal point the direction of the ball throw in on the baseline. I'm not sure if there is a place in the scorebook to record a basket interference or not but I assume that there is not. Is this the correct way to handle this or not? Also, goaltending--same question. Thanks, Ralph.
