Designated spot

The key is that the player start directly over the designated spot. Then the slight movement in either direction will never result in leaving the designated spot. If the player starts with his right foot on the left edge of the designated spot, then a movement left moves him off the spot.

Huh? You ever had a ref give this as a reason for calling a violation?

Of course, I also believe that when a ref gives a player the ball, the ref should consider that to have established the center of the designated spot 3 foot zone (as long as the player is in the area the ref has indicated). Makes it simpler then!

Well, the good ones do anyway!

Yeah yeah, I know, and that's why I never do....very funny coach, very funny
