Play of the Week

         12-1-07

Here is this week's POTW. Submit answers to
Dave Mullen via email or on the FORUM discussion page. I will then post who gets it correct.

Correctly answering the 11-24-07 POTW were:
                  Mike Crowley
                  Les Huisingh
                  Andy Milton
                  Dave Mueller
                  Tim Sloan
PLAY:
        
While A1 is dribbling in A's backcourt, the ball legally touches B2's leg, causing it to bounce away from A1. A1 recovers the ball with two hands and starts a new dribble. What do you as an official do in this situation?

a) Begin a new 10 second backcourt count
b) Continue the 10 second backcourt count
c) Blow the whistle for a double dribble violation
d)  Allow play to continue as the dribble ended when the ball legally touched B2
e) Blow the whistle for a kicking violation on B2.

Which answer(s) are correct?


      11-24-07 POTW ANSWER

The correct answers for the 11-24-2007 POTW are A & C. According to rule 4 section 42 article 5, a throw in ends when the passed ball touches, or is legally touched by, another player who is either inbounds or out of bounds, except as in 7-5-7. An AP throw-in opportunity  is lost when according to rule 6 section 4 article 5  the throw-in team violates.
Therefore A is correct as the ball has been touched legally, B is not correct because the ball DOES NOT have to be controlled, C is correct because if the throw-in team violates the AP throw-in ends and D is not correct because a violation by the non-throw-in team will not end the AP throw-in.


PLAY:
When does an Alternating Possession Throw-in end?

a) When the passed ball legally touches a player inbounds

b) When the passed ball is controlled by an inbounds player

c) When the throw-in team violates

d) When the non-throw-in team violates

Which answer(s) are correct?

I will keep you posted if and when the IHSA changes this policy.
