Summer ball here = running clock.

So Snaqs, did you have any IB violations while no pressure was being applied?

Heh, no. Frankly, the court got me to thinking afterwards about what I'd do if I started a throw in without invoking the line and then the defensive pressure approached the thrower.

You'd be thinking, "Dang! Should've covered that in the captains meeting."

I promise you, if I have another game on this court; I'll bring it up in the captains' meeting. I'll also need to brush up on the rules governing the restraining line.

The sitch that crossed my mind - A2 receives a throw-in pass within the 3 feet restricted area whilst A1 is not being pressured.

We only have one such court in our local area, with restraining lines only on the sidelines. Luckily I only work there about once a year, and only with sixth, and seventh, graders. It looks more like a bowling alley than a basketball court.
