Hop travel

Guys,

Called a couple of these catch/hop/shoot in summer ball last week and was talking to my partner and he says he saw them but passed on the calls and recommended I do the same. I did not agree with him because they are travellling. I will pass on the close ones but will continue to call the obvious because they are gaining an advantage when they have control of the ball and then hop.
Your thoughts???

I've called travels on plays like this, but probably not as many as I could have. I would say that if you see them catch-hop (instead of hop-catch)... then you have to call the travel.

It's not an easy call to make unless it's obvious, but it's something we have to look out for because it could lead to an advantage for one team.

I agree with bballgame on the plays at 2:18. Those are travels.

WJC3, did that partner explain why you should pass on those calls?
