Zoochy During the prematch court inspection, the referees identify a vertical backboard above the playing surface. What is the referees' ruling if the ball strikes the vertical backboard during play?
FMadera It depends on the rule set. NFHS is judgment replay. Period. Regardless of height. NCAA/USAV replay if the obstruction is below 15ft, treated as ceiling 15ft and above. FIVB all ceiling obstructions are out. (edited to add one very important word)
Zoochy No Judgement? It still a replay even if the force of the ball is so hard that it would have gone out of play?
FMadera Zoochy wroteNo Judgement? It still a replay even if the force of the ball is so hard that it would have gone out of play? Oops, I left out one pretty big word. Yes, judgment replay. Still applies even if the vertical backboard is 30ft high, however. My bad. I need to type slower. :-) Felix
