Warm-ups to jerseys at bench

[bob jenkins]

2005 -06 Interps:

SITUATION 4: During the pregame warm-up, the 12 members of Team A are wearing warm-up tops, but not their team jerseys. Approximately one minute prior to the opening jump ball, the 12 Team A members go to the team bench, remove the warm-up tops and put on the team jerseys. RULING: One technical foul is charged to Team A, and it is also charged indirectly to the head coach. COMMENT: In a situation where similar multiple infractions occur at the same time, it is not the intent of the rules to penalize each individual infraction as a separate technical foul. (3-4-15; 10-4-1h)

At times, the NFHS does use common sense. I knew I'd read that ruling, but couldn't, quickly, put my finger on it.

Bob, how did you find it so fast.

(What about the current Answer Key, saying the answer is False?)

If only this site had a thread devoted to past (archived) interps, and someone would invent a way to search for a particular term within the thread ....

Can't help with the answer key.

Thought I'd seen it here before. Thanks, Bob. Apparently my searching skills aren't what they ought to be. That's 2 mistakes out of 200 on the answer key. 99 percent is normally a good score on anything but in this case.....
