Goal Tending and Basketball Interference GOAL TENDING AND BASKETBALL INTERFERENCE It is indeed meaningful for officials, coaches and players to know that there is a distinct difference between “goal tending” and “basket interference”. However, it is more important to know what is legal and what is illegal, so far as touching the ball or basket when either situation occurs. First, we must know the definition of the basket. The basket is the basket ring, the flange, braces and the net. The backboard is not part of the basket. The rule defines “goal tending” as an infraction that takes place when a player touches the ball during a tip, bat or try for field goal while the ball is entirely above the basket on its downward flight, is not in the imaginary cylinder, and has the possibility of entering the basket. Goal tending may also occur during a free throw attempt when an opponent of the free thrower touches the ball while it is outside the imaginary cylinder regardless whether the ball is on its upward or downward flight. Committing goal tending during a free throw is also a technical foul. Basket interference is defined as illegal touching of the ball when it is in the cylinder, on the ring, within the basket, regardless of how the ball got there. Touching the basket when the ball is on or within the basket is always classified as basket interference. It is also basket interference to reach through the basket from below and touch the ball before it enters the cylinder. It is not basket interference to touch the basket while the ball is in the imaginary cylinder above the ring level. Repeating, touching the ring or net while the ball is on the ring or in the basket is basket interference. Things to Remember About Goal Tending and Basketball Interference 1. Both defensive and offensive goal tending or basketball interference can occur. 2. If the ball is on the ring and any player touches the net, a basketball interference violation has occurred, either by the defense or by the offense. 3. It is not goal tending or basket interference when the defense blocks the ball on its’ upward flight and the ball is outside the imaginary cylinder. This could occur even if the ball is above the ring level, as long as it is touched outside the imaginary cylinder and on its’ upward flight. 4. Goal tending of a free throw is always a technical foul and count the basket. 5. If B1 touches the ball on a field goal try by A1 and the ball is on its’ upward flight, the legal touching by B1 does not end the try and the ball remains live. 6. All defensive or offensive goal tending or basket interference violations are always awarded for a throw‐in at the end line. 7. Basket interference of a free‐throw is a violation and may be defensive or offensive. The most important thing about goal tending and basket interference is to GET IT RIGHT. F.

The ball must be held in or between the hands; the arms or body must not be used for holding it. 5.

    25 Misunderstood Rules in High School Basketball 1. There is no 3-second count between the release of a shot and the control of a rebound, at which time a new count starts. 2. A player can go out of bounds, and return inbounds and be the first to touch the ball l! Comment: This is not the NFL. You can be the first to touch a ball if you were out of bounds. 3. There is no such thing as “over the back”. There must be contact resulting in advantage/disadvantage. Do not put a tall player at a disadvantage merely for being tall 4. “Reaching” is not a foul. There must be contact and the player with the ball must have been placed at a disadvantage. 5. A player can always recover his/her fumbled ball; a fumble is not a dribble, and any steps taken during recovery are not traveling, regardless of progress made and/or advantage gained! (Running while fumbling is not traveling!) Comment: You can fumble a pass, recover it and legally begin a dribble. This is not a double dribble. If the player bats the ball to the floor in a controlling fashion, picks the ball up, then begins to dribble, you now have a violation. 6. It is not possible for a player to travel while dribbling. 7. A high dribble is always legal provided the dribbler’s hand stays on top of the ball, and the ball does not come to rest in the dribblers’ hand. Comment: The key is whether or not the ball is at rest in the hand.

  • Squash Team Finishes As National Runner-Up
    SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS Squash Team Finishes as National Runner-up Although the Yellowjackets came heart- breakingly short of claiming their first squash national championship, the 2015– 16 season was marked by historic mile- stones in arguably the best season ever for the program. At the top of the list was a victory over defending national champion Trinity Col- lege in the semifinals of the College Squash Association’s Potter Cup. That win knocked Trinity out of the ti- tle game for the first time in 19 years and guaranteed that the Yellowjackets would finish above their previous national best of third in 2009. In the championship match against Yale University, the Yellowjackets battled from behind to force a 4–4 tie with only one point left to be decided. In the final set, Tomotaka Endo ’18 lost to Yale’s Kah Wah Cheong, sending the championship to New Haven. The finish was a reversal of an earlier season matchup in which Rochester beat Yale 5–4 at the Lyman Squash and Racquet- ball Center.

These statistics can have a large bearing and provide a lot of pressure on players as their every move can be analysed. Performance analysis in sport is a vital way of being able to track a team or individuals performance and more commonly used resource for player and team development. Discovering information such as this proves the importance of these types of analysis as with post competition video analysis a coach can reach a far more accurate analysis of the game leading to the ability to coach and correct the exact requirements of the team instead of their perceptions. A significant difference was found between winning and losing performances for different types of turnovers supporting current research that states that turnovers are not a valid predictor of match outcomes and that there is no specific type of turnover which can predict the outcome of a match as briefly mentioned in Curz and Tavares (1998).
