Disconcerting or not
 

Girls Varsity game.

Opponent is on free throw line. About 5 minutes left in the game. Opponent is getting smashed by 30 points. ball is giving to free thrower, one of the players goes to chat with coach why she committed foul. Coach tells her to drop and give her 10 push-ups which she did All this going on during free throw administration.


9-3c No opponent shall disconcert the free thrower. T or not?

As long as player is in proper place...

I got nothin'

yup. 11 push-ups and you got a violation. But there's a case play that says push-ups must be limited to 10 or fewer.

I could not find that case play in 9.1.3 situation D.E, F,G

It Makes A Difference ...
 

Were they boy pushups, or girl pushups?

Girl lol

Technical Violation ???
 

Since when did disconcertion become a foul instead of a violation?

I just want to be clear that I was joking.

Perhaps unsporting. Giving the way the game was being played. Blowout game. Nothing being gained by them acting like that.

It's going to be a rare call if anyone ever calls disconcertion on a player in the backcourt.

Who said backcourt? I assume both head coaches said YES when ask the question will the players and coaches display good sportsmanship throughout the contest.

You said she went to talk to her coach with 5 minutes left in the game while the opponent was shooting free throws. That puts her in the backcourt.

I fail to see how this is unsporting.

That is what I had said. Pushup girl was not in backcourt.

Speaking of disconcerting, would you call a disconcerting violation if the cheerleaders are at the other end of the court yelling "miss it miss it" during free throw administration at the other end of the court?

No

If We Can't Beat Them Nobody Can ...
 

I only pay attention to cheerleaders if I have to help them up when I run them over after they get in my way. Other than that, what cheerleaders?

Not so sure
 

Is it disconcerting for the coach to create a spectacle on the court that has nothing to do with basketball which would clearly and intentionally draw the attention of everyone in the gym, thus creating a resulting buzz that disrupts the shooter?

Is is disconcertion for a coach, through gestures, to encourage the crowd to make noise that disconcerts the shooter (I'm not talking about the crowd making noise on its own intending to disconcert, but of a situation in which a coach encourages it)

"No opponent shall disconcert the free-thrower."

So, she wasn't talking to her coach? Or she was yelling to him from across the court? If you want us to buy into the disconcertion call, we'll need more details to justify it than what you've provided.

On the cheerleaders....
No.

Would you call disconcertion on a team's fans? Cause for all intents and purposes, cheerleaders are just fans with some extra special courtside seats.

On the coach or the player? :eek::rolleyes:

You're not thinking "big enough." Go straight to the forfeit.

Is that as big as you got Bob?

I did have a partner call a disconderting violation on cheerleaders.:eek:
I was the Trail Official and had to hear it from the Coach after we are reshooting the Free-Throw.:mad:

1. I hope I am the trail when this occurs. As an NCO in the U.S. Army I am all about physical punishment.

2. I will observe that proper form and technique is used during the push-up (i.e. no girl push-up will be used)

“THE PUSH-UP EVENT MEASURES THE ENDURANCE OF THE CHEST, SHOULDER, AND TRICEPS MUSCLES. ON THE COMMAND, ‘GET SET’, ASSUME THE FRONT-LEANING REST POSITION BY PLACING YOUR HANDS WHERE THEY ARE COMFORTABLE FOR YOU. YOUR FEET MAY BE TOGETHER OR UP TO 12 INCHES APART (MEASURED BETWEEN THE FEET). WHEN VIEWED FROM THE SIDE, YOUR BODY SHOULD FORM A GENERALLY STRAIGHT LINE FROM YOUR SHOULDERS TO YOUR ANKLES. ON THE COMMAND ‘GO’, BEGIN THE PUSH-UP BY BENDING YOUR ELBOWS AND LOWERING YOUR ENTIRE BODY AS A SINGLE UNIT UNTIL YOUR UPPER ARMS ARE AT LEAST PARALLEL TO THE GROUND. THEN, RETURN TO THE STARTING POSITION BY RAISING YOUR ENTIRE BODY UNTIL YOUR ARMS ARE FULLY EXTENDED. YOUR BODY MUST REMAIN RIGID IN A GENERALLY STRAIGHT LINE AND MOVE AS A UNIT WHILE PERFORMING EACH REPETITION. AT THE END OF EACH REPETITION, THE SCORER WILL STATE THE NUMBER OF REPETITIONS YOU HAVE COMPLETED CORRECTLY. IF YOU FAIL TO KEEP YOUR BODY GENERALLY STRAIGHT, TO LOWER YOUR WHOLE BODY UNTIL YOUR UPPER ARMS ARE AT LEAST PARALLEL TO THE GROUND, OR TO EXTEND YOUR ARMS COMPLETELY, THAT REPETITION WILL NOT COUNT, AND THE SCORER WILL REPEAT THE NUMBER OF THE LAST CORRECTLY PERFORMED REPETITION.”

3. If the corrective action is not completed, or completed to standard the coach will be given the option of requesting a time-out (until he runs out), or suffer a delay of game warning. Once he no longer has any time-outs, or has achieved his second delay of game a series of technical fouls will be issued until the above action has been conducted to standard.

Is this related to the Hingle McCrinkleberry football excessive celebration rule????

You guys are on a roll today...:)
