I would go for this rule, other than at the end of the 4th Quarter or Overtime. Held ball with 2.9 seconds left, down by 1, and opponent gets the arrow (and ball). Game over? Just make them play...

LDUB - I am in total agreement with you. What I am trying to explain to those who are wanting to count the basket, is that the activity (unless flagrant) after the "bark" is to be ignored. For...

I think common sense needs to be applied here. The reason the federation changed the rule to make it an unsporting technical foul was because team A is puposely trying to decieve Team B. And in...

I will always go with the theory of trying to use preventitive officiating, when possible. Sometimes rules are established as guidelines to create a "fairness" to the game. I will not call a...

Juulie-
I would tend to agree with all you said, other than the point about being an intentional on the defender, when he reached thru the plane, but A1 initiated the contact. If you are going to...

How many of you use preventitive officiating the first time it happens, and either talk to the player that is "Flopping", or talk to coach? Again, this would probably depend on the severity or...

"But the inexperience really shows for those that do mostly 3-person games."

Sorry, this should have read 2-person games!!

I think the question above was whether we have enough quality officials to do 3-person, or whether we have enough quality 3-person officials to do the tournament games? IMO, right now there are not...

Rock Valley will allow you to use 3-person crew, if approved by both AD's and Commissioner. It is a game-by-game choice. However, it is pay 2 for 3. Some guys don't mind making $37 instead of $55...

What happens if the defender takes a swipe at the player with the ball, completely misses him, and then offensive player fakes like he got hit in the eye? Bad judgement if you call it, IMO. I think...

I used to know a girl who played 6-on-6 in Iowa. She was recognized as an All-State player, and never scored a point in her career. She was strictly a defensive player. Kind of weird to hear it...

I saw this play as it happened, and then several times on the replay. My view was that the ball stayed in the backcourt while both feet went to the front-court, and before he picked up the dribble...

After reading the explanations above, it makes perfect sense (to those who can make perfect sense), that the rule does not cheat Team B when the AP arrow is kept for Team A. Team A never got to...

I wonder if we are taking this too far. Wouldn't the second throw-in be considered part of the original AP throw-in because of the kick, and when that throw-in is "legally" completed, the arrow...
