Doesn't matter...you aren't shooting free throws.

It matters, ever so slightly. Are you going with the hand behind the head signal (player control), or the one hand punch signal (team control)?

If I am reading the rule correctly it would be team control with no shots. NFHS

Why not a player control foul?

Here in the Land that is round at both ends and hi in the middle we use the same signal for both: hand behind the head, followed by the directional signal.

No we do NOT use both signals in Buckeye Land. What the NFHS Basketball Rules Committee Chairman (an OhioHSAA Adminstrator who shall remain nameless) has ruled: That the OhioHSAA will not follow the NFHS Basketball Rules Committee Signals Chart concerning the correct signal for Team Control Fouls. This decision was made at the start of the 2009-10 year, the first year the TCF signal was added to the NFHS Basketball Rules Committee Signals Chart.

The OhioHSAA wants its officials to use only Signal #34 for all Team Control Fouls, both Player Control Fouls and non-PCF TCFs. The NFHS Basketball Rules Committee Chairman's reasoning for this blatant deviation from the Signals Chart is that and I quote: "It would be confusing to the Scorer."

I am going to stop now.

MTD, Sr.


P.S. To my knowledge, the OhioHSAA did not seek permission of the NFHS to deviate from the Official Signals Chart.

Compare this year's book to the 2009-2010 (and probably last year's) book.

2011-12 NFHS 4-12-1: A player is in control of the ball when he/she is holding or dribbling a live ball.

2010-11 NFHS 4-12-1: A player is in control of the ball when he/she is holding or dribbling a live inbounds.

How about a twist? Inbounder A1, while holding the ball out of bounds, preparing for a throwin, reaches across the boundary and pushes B2, who is inbounds, to create more space. Player control foul?

A thrower reaches out to clear space....this sounds intentional not common and therefore not PC.

Hey. One twist at a time. This ain't a game of Twister. Start your own thread.

Why does it have to be intentional? Players try to clear out space all the time and we're not trying the X's up. In fact, I'd say that 9/10, if this situation were to actually present itself, it wouldn't be an intentional foul.
