Which is why I included..."either away from the endline or away from the lane." Staying close to the lane when you have no room to back up is a horrible place to be for plays at the basket. |

Really? I hope this is an exaggeration. If not, you need to reconsider your philosophy. I understand moving back to get a better angle, but once you are past 6-8 feet you stop improving your angle and start putting yourself in a worse position.

I agree....15 feet out of bounds serves no purpose. That is just way too far from any play that needs to be covered. Even if you had the perfect angle on a play, your ability to move to maintain that angle is greatly limited since the distance you need to move to keep an angle is amplified by increase in distance.

Maybe two schools competing with vastly different talent levels...(70-13)? you could HIDE a first year official... but, I still think that 1st year person would be a RARE official indeed, to actually be READY. P.S. Around these neck of the woods...H.S. Boys Varsity...it's pretty competitive...I've only had one "Mercy" game since they came out with the 40 pt. rule.
