Observation: On page 9 of the 2012 Rules Book, Section 3 Art.3, is states.....if the floor has a logo in the center of the court, that logo should not distract from the visibility of the center line or center circle.

NOW...I though this would mean a school logo, but could it also mean a "business logo"?

Nebraska by chance?

Straight from the NFHS Part 1 exam. Do you really care about the content of the question or are you just ticked that this appeared on the test? Do you want to know what rule reference the exam writers give for the question?

My interpretation as well as yours or anyone else's on this forum doesn't really matter. Matters such as this are up to your state association for a practical matter and to the NFHS test writers for exam purposes.

Sure its not great but if you don't then no doubt one of your crew will inevitibly have a close play right at the line where you really can't call the back court violation because you don't have definate knowledge if the O is over it or not.

Not in my local area. This is seen as a safety issue. The instruction here is to do your best without the line and report it to the proper authority. Basically, let it go if it is close, but make the call if it is obvious, but do NOT have any foreign substance put onto the playing court. Liability is the concern.

I hope that it isn't the only question which you had marked as incorrect, since I know of one incorrect answer on the key for sure, and also am of the opinion that another question is not right.

Good, then this will explain why I only received an 94.

I thought if you could not find a rule against something, it was legal.

Play the game, then send a report to your state association. The feds can handle it from there.
