Thrower-in A1 extends the ball over the
boundary line. Before A1 releases the
throw-in pass, B1 contacts A1 on her wrists.
What is the result?


The official shall rule a Flagrant 1 Personal
Foul on B1. (This type of personal foul counts
toward player and team Foul Count.)
Also, issue a delay for boundary line
infraction so that any subsequent boundary
line infraction is penalized.

Player A3 is passing the ball to A2 in the back
court. While the pass is in flight, A5 and B5
commit a double personal foul inside the
free-throw lane in the front court. The
official shall:

Play is resumed at the point of interruption
where A3 made the pass. A5 and B5 will be
charged with off-setting common personal
fouls (No Free-throw shots) and the shot
clock will not be reset.

Team A is entitled to a throw-in under the
alternating possession procedure. A1 is
standing on the sideline and throws the ball
to A3. The pass is kicked by B3 and the ball
goes out of bounds on the endline. The
officials shall:

Award Team A the ball at the spot nearest
where the kicking violation occurred. The AP
remains with Team A.

Can a thrower-in commit a traveling
violation?

Since there is NO PIVOT FOOT on the
thrower-in, there cannot be a travel.

On a jump ball, A1 commits a jump ball
violation by catching the ball. What is the
procedure an official uses to establish the AP
arrow?

Once the ball is at the disposal of a player
entitled for a throw-in on Team B, the AP
arrow will be set to Team A to establish the
AP procedure.
