Splitting Team During Warm Up - Technical?

They never step onto the court, or interfere with Red Team's warmup.

Technical or not? I cannot find the citation.

Thanks!

For an NCHSAA game, yes, that's a technical foul. Covered at this year's state rules clinics per the POE above. The team should take the shortest route to their end. Coaches were told the same thing before the season.
