Scores in Wrong Basket

Badger05

The points are awarded to the team who's basket they were scored in. The shooter is not credited with the points but a footnote is made refrencing that info.

Why does the captain get the points???? [/B]

Remember, crazy voyager usually references FIBA rules. I would assume it's just a method to keep track of the points. Now, whether or not that's a FEEBLE excuse is a whole other discussion... 😉

What's this?

A post with a FIBA ruling and no BBR to tell us that it's FEEBLE? 🙄

Oops, sorry I have never looked at an FIBA rulebook and I didn't pick up on that in the thread.

Guys, Voyager (may I call you V'ger?) uses FIBA rules. I'd be willing to bet that this is one of those differences between FED/NCAA and FIBA.

Chuck, as usual you are right! And to expand on the previous post, if a team repeatedly scores in the wrong basket on purpose a technical foul is issued for unsportsmanlike conduct - only seen it happen once though!

On the topic of a basket scored in the wrong basket...what is the procedure for this happening at the beginning of the game, i.e. right after the tip?

I think it is a correctable error but who gets the points, who gets the ball afterwards?

Case book play 5.2.3 is close enough. That one is a player going the wrong way at the start of the second half.

Legal goal. Two points to the other team. End-line throw-in to the team that scored in the wrong basket.

I'm no scorekeeper but I thought this is a foot note?

Anyhow when this has happened to me, I kill it. Score the basket, let the teams know which way they're going, and give it to the SAME team for a throw-in. Don't let the other team throw the ball in - I can see that mistake coming.

I understand the player NEAREST to the inaccurate shooter get the points.

See NFHS rule 5-2-3, Daddy. It never gets credited to any player.

Ref Daddy

Yep.... Thanks JR!

ART. 3 . . . If a player scores a field goal in the opponent's basket, it is not credited to a player, but is indicated in a footnote

My my, I just confuse people 😛

In FIBA it's the opponent captain getting credit for the score. Havn't got the rule book here so I can't check the refrence though.

And you may call me V'ger if you'd like 😛 (anybody seen star trek 😃) or CV works too, came thing for me.

crazy voyager

comeing back with refrence, the refrence is 16.2.2 interpetation statement 2 Example 2.

Wrong sport. In baseball, the closest player to one runner passing another gets credited with the out and in football, the closest player gets credited when a safetyi scored.

Girl gets confused and shoots and scores in the other team's basket. Points obviously go to the team into whose basket the ball went, but after the ball goes in, do you blow the whistle and award the ball to the the team of the confused girl? Or no whistle, let them figure out what happened and play on?

When this happened last weekened, I blew the whistle because after it happened there was a lot of confusion. Told the scorer to count the basket for the correct team and then in-bounded to the confused girl's team while getting everyone re-oriented.

Thinking about it later, I'm not sure I should have blown the whistle since there was no violation or foul. Whistle or no whistle?

You did it exactly right. A whistle needs to be blown on this play.

The definitive ruling for the NFHS is given in the Simplified and Illustrated book on page 21. The official is to stop play, credit two points to the team whose goal the ball went through, and then award the ball for an end line throw-in to the team not credited with the score.
