Please don't tell us that it was 3 feet in front of you and your partner made the call across the court. It has happened to me.

Most Of Us Know Bettter ...
just another ref: I would hope that you would refrain from making long distance calls like this. Haven't you ever heard about primary coverage areas? Well, at least you owned up to it. That's the first step to becoming a better official.

Another Desperate Call To The ...
![]() During a fumble the player is not in control of the ball, and therefore, cannot be called for a traveling violation. A fumble is the accidental loss of player control when the ball is unintentionally dropped or slips from a player’s grasp. After a player has ended a dribble and fumbled the ball, that player may recover the ball without violating. Any steps taken during the recovery of a fumble are not traveling, regardless of how far the ball goes and the amount of advantage that is gained. It is always legal to recover a fumble, even at the end of a dribble, however that player cannot begin a new dribble, which would be an illegal dribble violation. A player who fumbles the ball when receiving a pass may legally start a dribble.

Speed Reading For Dummies ...
Actually, I was speed reading his post, and thought that it was oddly worded, until I re-read his post. I figured that this would be a good time to do a little tongue in cheek postings in just another ref's honor. I hope he realizes that most of us here on the Forum, in any case, at least me, know that he wouldn't go that far out of his primary to make that type of call. Very few of us would. If he was offended, than I apologize.

![]() Third game ever, I called a throw-in violation. I was the non-administering official. ![]() I can tell you the gym, who my P was, and almost tell you the date as well. ![]() I once used "over the back" in a game, only to describe the body movement that caused the foul. It felt weird to say it.

Right, like the time I told a coach we needed a sub for a player, because her hair was covering her number.
Oh wait, that was last month. ![]() (I'm going back there today. Mea culpa time.) |

It happened to me this year. One of the few 3 man games I've had. I'm trail. Girl is 6 feet in front of me. She bobbled the ball for no apparent reason. I didn't see her move her foot at all. I wouldn't have called anything without the bobble. C whistled a travel from across the gym. Only time in 26 years I ever said sh*t out loud (barely) around my whistle.
The call was made by one of the most experienced veterans we have.

Several years ago, twice in the same week, I reached through a crowd to call traveling when I thought the player stood up off of a knee. I can also tell you which gym, which partner, and how quickly I apologized to each.

It was 3 ft in front of me. Both partners did refrain from calling travel. Yes, coach and fans howled as we were exiting for halftime. It was 2 against 1 in the locker room. BTW, I knew the answer to my play, I was using the forum as a testament to the travel rule. Post has been forwarded.
