There are different ways for officials to learn the rules of basketball. We find that reviewing play scenarios can make the rules questions more vivid.

With our Basketball Rules Expert series we hope to do just that. A play scenario unfolds, just as it would in a game, and we then need to have the rules with us to adjudicate the play properly.

Join us for some play review and let’s all get better as basketball officials.

Were the officials correct, yes or no?

The Bench Area isn't a prison that team members are locked in. To adjudicate plays correctly we must know the rules. In todays episode we open up the mailbag and answer viewer questions about the rules of High School Basketball using NFHS Basketball Rules. We have a couple of questions regarding Team Members being forced to stay in the bench area, or penalized if they fail to.
