I'm going to guess:

Basket counts, report foul as normal, no team control so bonus as needed.

Was it some kind of blocking out foul? So far this summer I've seen these called very...

Watching some summer V bball on Tuesday. Host gym coaches were reffing, which was pretty funny. He signaled all foul numbers with both hands.

Shooting foul on #11, he signals the # with both...

WOW! some of you guys might want to consider decaf. :)

Let me translate circling the wagons in this case.

The ref makes a bad call. He apologizes it was a bad call. And yet people here are...

Wouldn't his left foot be his pivot?
Catch>land on right>land on left>step with right
We can't see if he moves his left with the ref in the way.

BTW, way to circle the wagons, even with the ref...

I was watching my daughter play last night, and unfortunately ended up sitting by the annoying parents. A few of them think they are coaches, yelling "shooot!" when they are trying to set up the...

The first play was just to set the mood of the game, I completely agree it was a common foul.


Now for a much trickier question! We are playing this team again in a few days. Is there any nice...

Intentional fouls

I thought I had this rule straight, but I may be mistaken. Is it something like "you must make a play on the ball when you attempt to foul"?

A little prelim, just to set up the feel of the game.

Since someone else already tossed in and apples/oranges (kids, coworkers) comparison, I'll throw one in there.

I'm glad football doesn't have such sensitive rules about complaining/cursing. I like...

Interesting one

Varsity Girls. I couldn't actually hear on this, so I'm just going from what I got second hand, and what I could see from the stands.

Play is stopped. A1 has blood on jersey, ref tells her to...

Girls JV game last night, lining up for the free throw. All of a sudden, ref throws a T. I thought it was a girl making comments about the foul call. But nope, turns out one girl had a barrett (sp?)...

After a good block gets called a foul:

"You better let the ball shoot the free throws, cause that's the only thing that got fouled!"

I didn't realize so few states had a shot clock. Being in a state (WA) that has one, for girls anyway.
I like a shot clock. It rewards good defense, and seems to prevent teams from "slowing it...

I was wrong, my bad! The rule has been enforced a little haphazardly and I made a assumption. As I said, in a VG game last week, a home player was made to remove a black headband, in the middle of a...

Oh, I thought away had to wear black headbands and home white. Is that not true? Looks like they're all wearing black.

It has nothing to do with the game of basketball. Black or white head band, neither will distract from the game. The rule makers, I believe, are out of their minds. Next will they decide to dictate...

Sure, I know it wasn't intentional. At that age, I'm sure they were just making sure everyone was ready to play. Which makes sense on the one hand.

First off, this is a great place to learn the rules. Right now I'm just a bball dad, but have done a (very) little reffing, and also coached.
