Double Foul
 

If there is a double foul where one is personal and the other is a swinging elbow to the head (intentional or flagrant), does play resume at the point of interruption?

Are the fouls on opposite teams? I don't think that matters just curious the situation.

A double foul consisting of (a) a "common" personal, and (b) an intentional/flagrant personal, still goes to POI in NFHS.

Anything can happen, of course, but I'm guessing most of the time when you see an elbow to the head, you will have a tendency not to see the lesser foul which happens at approximately the same time. jmo

The NCAA put something out on this prior to the 2011-12 season. I need to search around to see if I can find it.

(NCAA) If one of the fouls of a double foul is a flagrant foul, resume at POI to team offended by the flagrant foul.:)

That's what I think, too, but I couldn't find it in a quick glance at the on-line rules before I got interrupted. Do you have a reference?

You bet. 10-1-Pen.-f

Thanks. My quick glance was in rule 7.

Note also that this rule has been changed (at least in NCAAW) since the book was printed. If the common foul requires FTs, then both sets of FTs are shot and play resumed at POI with the ball to the offended team. but, if the common foul does not require FTs, then no FTs are shot.

Wierd, but that's how I understand it.

So what is the ruling in HS?

Resume at point of interruption. If there is team control, designate the nearest inbounds spot for the offense. If there is not team control, go to the alternating possession arrow.

Yes, there could be other results but the most common is above
