Block/Charge: RA Play

[Scrapper1]

I agree that the officials handled this in textbook fashion. I will add only this: Somebody better darn well have the number of the defensive player. The Lead definitely won't have it because he's going the other way, so he's focused on A1's number.

It will be real easy for the C to lose the number as well, because he's now focused on getting to the Lead before he gets to the table.

The Trail very rarely needs to get the number of the fouler, so will likely not even think about it when it happens.

And this is NOT reviewable by rule. (Although you can always lie and say you're checking to make sure you have the right shooter.)

All this is to say, now that we're all comfortable with the actual mechanics of changing the call, we need to start pre-gaming who will grab the number of the fouler.

It better be the guy coming into make it a block since he's the one "making" that call.

Another teaching moment here is the trail doesn't get sucked into the officials meeting and keeps his eyes on the players and gets the ball.

It better be, but in the heat of "OMG, he missed that b/c of the arc!", it might easily slip the mind at the moment. Just thought mentioning it in pre-game might be helpful to avoid any problems later.
