Recite Them, Without Looking, No Cheating ...
I don't. At least not all the various permutations of the jump ball rules. I used to, but that was three decades ago.

I have said, "Wait until the ball is tipped" but I am more talking to the jumpers. As far as I am concerned, this is more on the teams to know the rules. And I only say this as the Referee. Never thought of the other players honestly.

Does everyone announce direction and color? It is common in my area but I am not sure why.
As the R, I confirm with captains that their team is on the floor and ready to go. Then I whistle and toss. Probably less than 2 seconds between tweet and toss. Not much time to get in trouble. As a U, I keep my mouth shut and hope nothing blows up. Personally, I think a jump ball is a terrible way to get a great start to a game but a great way to get a terrible start to a game. |

Scratch85: You had better delete your statement above before Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. sees it, or you're going to be getting a good scolding.

Better To Be Safe Than Sorry ...
I do. As I announce I glance over at the benches to be sure that the teams are going in to the correct direction (opposite benches). This little habit of mine, and it's just mine, not my local board's, has saved me from an embarrassing start in several Catholic middle school games, and in a few varsity high school games over the years. If I start he game going in the wrong direction, the coaches, and fans, will have more "ammunition", if you know what I mean.

Where is it in the book? Like I said, most in my area do it but I didn't think it was in the manuals anywhere. |

Did I Guess Correctly ???
I'm at work, with no books, but I'll venture a guess. The jumpers are waiting for the ball to be tipped before they leave the jump ball circle. I don't believe that they can leave on the toss, but I'm not sure.

a. Touch the tossed ball before it reaches its highest point. b. Leave the center restraining circle until the ball has been touched. c. Catch the jump ball. d. Touch the ball more than twice. Peace

In addition
The non-jumpers on the center circle are not allowed to enter an occupied space or have a foot over the restraining line until the ball is touched.
In post #25, I meant, where is it in the books that we announce color and direction? Otherwise I was just playing with welp's and tref's pedantic use of the word "elucidate". Last edited by Scratch85; Mon Oct 08, 2012 at 02:47pm. |

I see what you did there. Interesting. I don't see it as bad to "look high school," but I'm not trying out for the RMAC, so.... I do it for the reasons Rut stated. The habit has saved me a poor start on more than one occasion, particularly in off season ball. I don't check with captains, though, so I can't be too judgy.
