Late Team

Working past 9:30 might possibly define working into the weekend and entitle the staff to weekend/overtime pay.

The grade school I attended rents a gym for their CYO sports because their own is too small. When they use the public school gym, they have to be out by a certain time during basketball season (6:30 pm, I think), otherwise they have to pay extra for the custodian on duty to stay past then for take-down/cleanup.

In GA (Varsity and below), if the traveling school has not arrived or communicated to the host school by 30 minutes past the tip time, the game is a forfeit. If the visiting time arrives before the 30 minute past tip timeline, put 15 minutes on the clock when they enter the building.

Worked a tourney last week that was late starting 3 days in a row because of late teams. One partner was grumbling and threatening to start the game with a technical foul. I said that this was not the thing to do and did my best to downplay the idea. But afterward I thought more about the specifics of the situation. I still don't believe that this is the intent and purpose of this rule, but had he chosen to use it, I find it hard to dispute.

10-1-1: A team shall not fail to supply the scorer.................at least 10 minutes before the scheduled starting time.

I'm 100% sure that this rule takes into account that the team has already arrived at the site, just as you wouldn't use the resuming play procedure to begin the second half if one team was still in the locker room.

My opinion as well. No T's based on traffic conditions.

Visiting team isn't there....well then the scheduled starting time has been pushed back indefinitely.

That's what I told him at the time.
