replacement interval

[Adam]

I think the question is what to do if the coach refuses.

The 20 second interval would be good, but it's not coded in the rule.

You could just issue the T when he makes it clear he doesn't intent to comply.

I think it *DOES* apply.

10-5-2 "The head coach shall replace a disqualified / injured player, or player directed to leave the game, within 20 seconds when a substitute is available.

Never mind, then.

One thing though, Bob. It says the HC has 20 seconds to replace the player but in the case play I cited there’s nothing about being able to use a TO to keep a player in the game when (s)he is wearing jewelry. Injury and/or blood, yes. It may be a difference of something a player can control (jewelry) as opposed to something they can’t (injury and/or bleeding).

Right. You can't use a TO to keep the player in the game in the case of jewelry.

That's not what was asked, though.

D'oh!

Would the replacement interval be given if no sub is available (so HC can talk with his remaining players)..?? This is a question from another discussion board.

...or a player who has been sent out because his jersey is untucked.
