to leave the game, unless a time-out is requested by, and granted to, his/her team

my 2014/15 ipad rules and paper rules dont have the "and/or." they simply say AND. the casebook play Camron cited, which has the coach trainer running onto the floor, certainly does...

i've said it before so i have to say it now...preface in case book says...case book plays are "supplement to the rules, approved by the rules committee, official." the law until overturned...

(Question: Why doesn't the shift key on your keyboard work?)

Good catch BigCat. The change in the rulebook was made in 2013-14.

3-3-6: A player who has been injured to the extent that the coach or any other bench
personnel is beckoned and comes onto the court shall be directed to leave the game, unless a
time-out is requested by, and granted to, his/her team and the situation can be corrected by the end
of the time-out.

3.3.6 SITUATION B: A1 appears to be injured and an official properly halts play and the Team A coach rushes onto the court to check A1. However, A1 is OK and seems ready to play within a few seconds. RULING: A1 must be removed as the coach came onto the court. A1 may remain in the game if the coach does not come on the court and A1 is ready to play immediately. If the coach or other bench personnel have come onto the court, the player must be replaced. There is no set amount of time as to what is “immediately,” but it should not involve more than a few seconds and it must be without the coach, athletic trainer or doctor being beckoned and/or entering the court. The coach may also call a time-out to keep the player in the game provided the replacement interval for the substitution has not begun. (10-4-2)

Yet another example of an announced rule change by the NFHS. This is the first that I've heard of this change. Why does the NFHS keep doing this? They should, at least, announce this as an editorial change. Instead, they like to play, "How Is The Photo On The Left Different Than The Photo On The Right?". When will the NFHS realize that basketball isn't a game. Wait? I'm being told ... What? Are you sure? Never mind.

To make matters worse, we have the unintended consequence of the change not showing up in the casebook.

Why does the NFHS accept such incompetence from its basketball committee? Does this happen in other sports?

Kids today? Can't live with them, can't live without them. My kids have the same keyboard problems, their shift keys don't work.
