OFFICIATING GUIDELINES

Guidelines for Officiating Unsportsmanlike and Disqualifying Fouls

basketball play. Note: A foul that is considered a legitimate basketball play may still be ruled an unsportsmanlike or disqualifying foul if other criteria are applicable.

• 3. When the fouler commits a foul with her arm or hand, whether

she winds up prior to contact or follows through after making contact.

• 4. The severity of any injury suffered by the offended player.
• 5. The outcome of the contact.

OFFICIATING GUIDELINES

Mechanics Presentation

MECHANICS

Proper Procedures After Calling Fouls/Violations

• Officials must slow down after calling foul/violation to

better communicate with partners

• Use proper signals at the spot of the foul
• After calling foul, notify partner(s) of who was fouled

when shooting foul or if foul results in FTs

• Stay engaged during dead ball situations

TEACHING POINTS

Court Coverage/Positioning

• Officials must officiate their respective areas of responsibility
• The primary official should have the only whistle when a

foul/violation occurs in their primary

• When the primary official does not have a whistle on a

foul/violation that is OBVIOUS, then the secondary official should make the call.

• Double whistles should only occur when there is uncertainty

in whose primary area the foul/violation occurred.

TEACHING POINTS

Court Coverage/Positioning

• Frontcourt coverage on drives to the basket
• Drives down the lane and below FT line: L is

responsible for play all the way to basket

• L has primary responsibility for block/charge plays (C

and T secondary)

• L has primary responsibility for plays at the rim (C

and T secondary)

• C and T have dual coverage responsibility on pull up

shot/pass TEACHING POINTS

Court Coverage/Positioning

• When a player curls towards an official, that official

should make the call

• Drives originating from T to L: L is responsible for play

when it is in L’s primary area TEACHING POINTS

Court Coverage/Positioning (NEW)

• Drives originating from C side
• C is responsible for primary defender
• C has primary-timed whistle for plays involving primary

defender and secondary-timed whistle for plays involving secondary/help defender

• C must position adjust to create best angle possible to
• fficiate the play
• Once primary defender is beaten, C will continue to
• fficiate this defender from the backside

TEACHING POINTS

Court Coverage/Positioning (NEW)

• Drives originating from C side
• L has primary coverage for refereeing the

secondary/help defender

• L will pinch the paint and pick up A to B movement

and RA position of secondary/help defenders

• L has primary-timed whistle involving the

secondary/help defender and secondary-timed whistle involving the primary defender TEACHING POINTS

ASSISTING in this situation TEACHING POINTS

Transition Coverage by Center

• Momentarily hold position after a change of possession,

FG or FT attempt

• In transition, officiate the middle third of the players

regardless of where the players are on the court

• As soon as the ball crosses the division line, the C is

responsible for coverage in the C’s primary area. TEACHING POINTS

Frontcourt positioning - Lead

• Location of the ball determines L’s position
• When the L is strongside and the ball is wide, L assumes

a wide-angle position

• When the ball is in the middle of the court or on the C’s

side, the L is in a closed-down or pinch the paint position

• L must adjust positioning for the best rebound coverage

and never watch flight of ball

• L is not to rotate during shots or drives to the basket

TEACHING POINTS

Areas of Intersection

• Primary official must stay with ball/play until the ball/play

clearly leaves their primary coverage area

• In areas of intersection plays, eye contact and body

language are keys in recognizing when a partner assumes responsibility of that play TEACHING POINTS

Coverage of Three-Point Shot

• Requires the covering official to position adjust to first referee the

defender and to see possible fouls

• Position adjust, if needed, to referee:
• the defender
• screening action primary area
• Keep head up to referee illegal contact
• Use peripheral vision to locate 3-pt line
• Take the shooter up and down in order to referee landing space
• Now adjust for rebounding coverage
