We
have our youth basketball coaches meeting on November 4th and
I am looking for some "coach vs official" stories to
hand out and go over. In our league, we use mostly HS age boys/girls
as our officials. This is by necessity - the adult won't do it.
The officials are expected to call a perfect game. The kids -
players make dozens of mistakes during the game, coaches make
poor coaching decisions during the game but the officials are
jumped on the first time they make a call that someone doesn't
like, understand or feels they are being screwed. I know that
it would be fiction but I am looking for a story or stories about
officials that walked up to a coach or a player and gave them
some of the crap that they have been given. I know that stories
like this are probably non-existent or few-and-far-between but
if you know of any, please let me know. Thanks, Steve Geddes,
CYSA Director of Recreation

George:
I'm contemplating a second career that will encompass something
about which I'm passionate. Having grown up in ACC land, I love
college basketball and have often thought the challenge of college
basketball officating would be thrilling. I played basketball
in high school. I have no idea how to even begin looking into
this, but would like your thoughts on the following: Assuming
I have the natural ability and work at it very hard, what is the
typical career path a basketball official takes? How do I get
the training and experience necessary to test and hone my skills?
Where do I begin? Is it a totally unrealistic goal of becoming
a Division I college basketball official? Thanks for your time
and response. Charles

In
response to the coach whose player was called for the technical,
(The one where his player had her back to the play and her arms
up), what the official was calling was a rule that a defensive
player is not allowed to put his or her hands in the offensive
players face in order to stop them from seeing an incoming pass.

situation: CYO girls basketball, on an inbounds play under the
opponents basket, player 1 is inbounding the ball. Is it legal
for player 2 to run out of bounds over the baseline, and then
have player 1 pass the ball to (the now out of bounds) player
2, who then inbounds the ball? Thanks for your answer!

We talked over the phone a few months back about your camp. Your
camp was already full for this summer so I was out of luck. You
mentioned a possible second session. Is that still a possibility?
If not, I do not want to miss your camp again next year. Could
you please let me know when you will open registration up for
next years camp so that I may attend? Thank you very much in advance.

Is
there a such thing as a "power dribble", often used
by centers (Shaq), involving one dribble (down low) with both
hands, and then going directly to the basket? I've seen it used
repeatedly by Shaq, and I thought this particular move would be
considered a "double dribble", or is it?

George,
After closing ceremonies on Sunday June 23,2002 at your camp I
realized that you are someone that is "good for the game."
Officials rarely receive the credit that they sometimes deserve,
and Being in that room and watching some of the recipients who
were blessed to receive awards get in touch with there feelings,
was overwhelming.I just wanted you to know that the watch that
I received for being a fourth year official at your school, is
the best peice of jewelry that I own today. Love and Respect,

GT, I
look foward to attending your Basketball Officiating School. I
have two other officials from the New York City area who have
expressed interest in attending your camp, and have told me they
are also excited about attending your school in June. I have a
website where I share information with officials about camps and
clinics throughout the country. The two officials who will be
attending your school this summer are members of the group and
told me that they first heard about your group through the website.
So, the website is helping to spread the message about your school.

George,
Can you please answer this question for me. I appreciate you taking
time. If Person_A is shooting a ball (jump shot/set shot etc.):
Is it a foul if the defender touches person_A's hand AFTER the
ball is released? If so, what part of the hand? So let's say,
the defender jumps to block person_A's shot, person_A releases
the ball and the defender touches person_A's fingers after his
shot. Is this a foul? Also, if the defender falls on person_A
after the ball has been released is that a foul? How do you call
fouls in situations like this. Once again thanks for your answers.

I
would love to attend your camp if I get the money. Are there also
any camps that are conducted for the expressed purpose of training
future NBA officials (similar to the pro baseball camps in Florida)?
Also, an NBA rules question: Was the defensive 3-second rule instituted
as a "companion" to the zone defense?
Eric Huechteman
- Tuesday, April 09, 2002 at 17:03:52 (PDT)
This
isn't really a question, but a further explanation to the question
about obstruction. The NFHS rules DO have a rule against obstructing
an opponent's view. It is called against a defender who is NOT
guarding the ballhandler if the intent is ONLY to obstruct the
offensive player's view. The rule book reference is: Rule 10,
Section 3, Article 8d. "A player shall not commit an unsporting
foul," including "obstructing the vision of an opponent
not in control of the ball by waving hands near his/her eyes."
The case book explains: "It is unsporting for a guard to
take a position behind a post player, or to take a position facing
an opponent, or to take a position with his/her back to the ball
and facing the opponent and then in either case, wave or hold
the hands in front of the opponent's eyes so that the opponent
cannot see to receive a pass.... Holding or waving hands near
the eye for the ostensible PURPOSE of obstructing an opponent's
vision is unsporting" (emphasis mine).

I have already registered for camp. A friend is getting married
Friday, June 21. He has asked me to be apart of the wedding. I
do not want to take up a valuable space in camp and have to leave
Friday morning and not arrive back at camp until midday Saturday.
Thus causing someone else to have to cover for me or not allow
someone else the opportunity to be able to participate fully.
I would like to request a refund for this summer and be put on
the list to participate in next summer's camp. Sincerely, WILLIAM
