Same situation as the previous question ... however, this time the player is being removed for a bloody nose.The official then instructs the timer to begin the 20-second replacement interval because a substitute is not made available immediately for the bleeding player.The training staff stops the bleeding prior to the expiration of the 20-second interval and the coach request a time-out to keep the player in the game.The official applies the "blood rule" to keep the player in the game and grants the time-out. Is the official correct.
- Yes, the blood rule supersedes the replacement guidelines and the player is permitted to remain in the game.
- No, the request must be made when the coach is informed a replacement is needed.
Correct Answer

A. No, the request must be made when the coach is informed a replacement is needed.

Explanation

The time-out request must be made when the official informs the coach that a replacement is required. Once the 20-second interval has begun and A1’s replacement is pending, a time-out shall
not be granted. Once A1 is replaced by a substitute, Team A may request and be granted a time-out, if desired. (2-

During an Alternating Possession (A-P) throw-in by Team A ... a player from Team B reaches across the boundary line plane.The official stops play.Check ALL that apply.
- The official should issue Team B a warning for delay.
- The throw-in has ended.
- Team A is given a throw-in but it is not considered an A-P throw-in.
- The throw-in has not ended.
- Team A is permitted to complete the A-P throw-in.
- Any further delay by Team B should result in a Team Technical Foul.
Correct Answer(s)

A. The official should issue Team B a warning for delay.
A. The throw-in has not ended.
A. Team A is permitted to complete the A-P throw-in.
A. Any further delay by Team B should result in a Team Technical Foul.

Explanation

Team B is issued a warning for breaking the throw-in plane. Since the original alternating-possession throw-in had not ended, the ball is again awarded to Team A and remains an alternating possession throw-in. Any type of further delay by Team B results in a team technical foul. (4-42-5; 4-47-1; 6-4-4; 7-6-

A1 is injured and bench personnel are beckoned onto the court. Once A1 has been removed from the court, the official notifies the Team A coach that a replacement is required. The official then instructs the timer to begin the 20-second replacement interval because a substitute is not made available immediately. Team A’s head coach then requests a time-out to keep A1 in the game. Should the official grant this time-out??
- Yes - provided it is done before the 20 second interval has elapsed.
- No - this is not permitted.
Correct Answer

A. No - this is not permitted.

Explanation

No this is an incorrect procedure. The time-out request must be made when the official informs the coach that a replacement is required. Once the 20-second interval has begun and A1’s replacement is pending, a time-out shall not be granted. Once A1 is replaced by a substitute, Team A may
request and be granted a time-out, if desired. (2-12-5 Note; 3-3-6; 5-8-3b)

After previously being warned, A-1 has been DIRECTED to leave the game because the jersey is not tucked properly into his game pants. The coach questions this ruling as being "nit-picking." Check ALL that apply.
- A-1 is permitted to stay in the game, provided he tucks his jersey in within a reasonable amount of time.
- Team A's coach may request a time out to keep A-1 in the game.
- The official should instruct the time to begin the 20 second replacement interval timer.
- Team A may not request a time out until after A-1 is substituted for.
- Officials should not focus as much on uniform violations once the game is underway.
- Team A's coach risks a technical foul if his questioning becomes un-sportsmanlike.
Correct Answer(s)

A. The official should instruct the time to begin the 20 second replacement interval timer.
A. Team A may not request a time out until after A-1 is substituted for.
A. Team A's coach risks a technical foul if his questioning becomes un-sportsmanlike.

Explanation

Once a player has been directed to leave the game, they must comply. A team may not be granted a time-out to keep a player in the game for this type of situation until the player is substituted for properly. Anytime a coach questions an official in an un-sportsmanlike manner, they risk a technical foul. (3-3-5)

Rule on this situation ... select ALL that apply.--Team A scores a goal.--While the ball is dead, Team A requests and is granted a time-out. --After the time-out, the official mistakenly awards the ball to Team A. -- A1 passes the ball to A2, who scores. --The mistake is recognized before the ball is at the disposal of Team B after the score.
- This is a correctable error and the ball shall be given to Team B for an endline throw-in.
- This error may be corrected prior to the ball becoming live.
- Once A2 legally touched A1’s throw-in pass after the time-out the throw-in ended.
- This is not a correctable error and the mistake cannot be corrected.
Correct Answer(s)

A. Once A2 legally touched A1’s throw-in pass after the time-out the throw-in ended.
A. This is not a correctable error and the mistake cannot be corrected.

Explanation

Once A2 legally touched A1’s throw-in pass after the time-out, the throw-in ended and the mistake cannot be corrected. This is not a correctable-error situation as described in Rule 2-10. (4-42-5; 7-5-7)

During the administration of a technical foul ... Team B is permitted to shoot their awarded free-throws at the WRONG basket (of Team A).The time frame for a correctable error subsequently expires before the officials are alerted by the scorer's table.Check ALL that apply.
- This is a mistake by the officials and not a correctable error.
- The points are counted for Team B.
- Because this is an error that was not corrected, the points are awarded to Team A.
- The points are counted for Team A.
- The points are dis-allowed and removed from the score book.
- This is a correctable error and could have been corrected if caught in time.
- Regardless of time elapsed, shoot the free throws at the proper end.
Correct Answer(s)

A. The points are counted for Team B.
A. This is a correctable error and could have been corrected if caught in time.

Explanation

This is a correctable error but the time-frame has passed. The free throws by B1 shall not be canceled and count toward Team B’s point total. (2-10-4)

A-1 has the ball out of bounds for a throw-in.Before releasing the ball, the thrower (A-1) loses her balance, reaches out and touches B-1, who is inbounds guarding the throw.A-1 does NOT step across the sideline ... and regains her balance and successfully completes the throw-in to A-2.How should the official rule on this play?? Select ALL that apply here.
- This is a legal play, provided A-1 did not touch the court.
- Team A is permitted to keep control after the throw-in.
- Throw-in violation on A-1.
- If contact on B1 was illegal (and not incidental) a personal foul should be ruled.
Correct Answer(s)

A. Throw-in violation on A-1.
A. If contact on B1 was illegal (and not incidental) a personal foul should be ruled.

Explanation

Throw-in violation by A1. A1 is required to remain out of bounds until releasing the throw-in pass. When A1 touches an inbounds player, he/she now has inbound status. However, if the contact on B1 is illegal, a personal foul should be called. COMMENT: A throw-in violation must be called in order to maintain the balance
between offense and defense. (2-3; 9-2-1; 9-2-5)
