Kicking the ball is illegal, but that doesn't mean every time the ball is kicked its a violation.

    Great video! What if a defender constantly does the same as the guy from the first example? Is there a penalty for repeated use of the foot?

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  2 роки тому +2

      No. Even if this happens several times in a row, the penalty is always a simply kicking violation with the ball for a throw-in and the nearest spot.

    just had yesterday a little discussion with 15 year old kids on the streetcourt about this topic.
    the same situation happened two times by two different people in seperate games.
    so in a 3v3 the ballhander dribbled the ball unintentionally on his foot. the kids said its kickball so I gave the the ball but not without insisting tht they are actually wrong. or am I wrong because it is an active move by the ballhander himself?

      You are correct but it has nothing to do with the ball handler doing the act. A kick is only a violation when it is an intentional act.

    Ok so i have i guy on 3on3 who routinely kicks the ball, purposely , when i pass low passes (cause he cant bend) and claims “yes it is a violation , so have the ball” .this means that i lost a potential point and he gets no penalty...can you please give advice on this. Is it legal or illegal. Legal means he is penalized, illegal means he is thrown out of the game, Or on 3on3 terms, i get the point. Looking forward to your reply.

    If an offensive player is dribbling pass a defender and the defender's foot makes contact with the ball forcing it in the opposite direction the dribbler, is it a steal or kickball?

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  Місяць тому

      It all depends on whether or not the defender intentionally kicks it or not.

    When a defender spreads their feet while jumping in attempting to block an inbound pass and the ball contacts the defender’s foot is this considered intentional? I would think it is but I often see no kick call made.

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  3 роки тому

      The way you describe in this statement, the leg intentionally moves toward the ball in an attempt to hit it. This would be a kicking violation.

    I have a player that dribbles the ball with his knees. Wondering if this is really a kick ball violation as it is intentional AND he strikes the ball with his knees / shins which is part of the leg.

    Will the shot clock reset to 14sec after a kickball violation? Or it will be a continuation?

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  2 роки тому

      The shot clock in NFHS is brand new, and currently an optional rule per each state, so the rules regarding a reset has yet to be published, but soon I’m sure. Stay tuned.

    • @apostoloskalpakas
      @apostoloskalpakas 2 роки тому

      If the shot clock shows more than 14 then it will stay. If it shows less than 14 it will be reset to 14.

    Here's a scenario that just happened to me.
    Offensive player throws a pass
    Defensive player puts hand and foot up at same time
    ball hits defensive player's hand then deflects into his foot
    defensive player gets possession throws it up for a fast break layup
    no call
    To me he obviously put his foot up intentionally to stop the ball. The fact it hit his hand first before deflecting into his raised foot is irrelevant, but I can't find anything specific on that, though some of these examples seem to illustrate the same concept.

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  9 місяців тому +1

      The official would have to make the judgement as to the reason the ball hit the foot. If it was intentionally kicked; violation. If it was a deflection off the hand and then unintentionally hits the foot; no violation. Not an easy play to rule.

      @@OfficialsInstitute I agree in the moment very difficult to decide. I do kind of wish the ref would have whistled it based on the look though, but it was against my team so of course I'd feel that way.
      My opinion on it is that the defensive player raised their hand and foot at the same time and the ball deflected off their hand into their raised foot and the intent of the raised foot was to strike the ball to stop the pass and it's irrelevant if it hit anything else first including a legal part of that player's body. I couldn't find anything in the rule or handbooks that said a deflection made it okay, but of course the player wasn't trying to deflect the ball of their hand into their foot they were trying to deflect the pass period using any part of their body available including their leg.
      For instance let's say the pass hit another player first or off the backboard and then hit the outstretched leg it would be a kick ball without question. I think what tripped us up is that the pass was bad enough that it hit the defender's hand first and the defender's opinion is that if I got a hand on it it should be mine. I somewhat agree but at the same time the pass might have been recovered by the offense if the trajectory hadn't changed off his foot.
      Incidentally if the ball had hit the player's other leg which wasn't outstretched to try and kick the ball I'd think it would be legal but that was also the foot visible to the ref so the chance it would have gotten whistled would go up. 🤷‍♂
      Thank you for taking the time to think about it and for this video. If you have an e-mail I can send you the play, I just can't give permission to post it because there's a lot of people in it that aren't me.

    This is probably the biggest false call in pick-up basketball. I've always argued that a kickball has to be intensional. People look at you like you're crazy. 90% of the gym think you're wrong. And the whole from the knee down rule is bizarre. It's anywhere on the leg. Lets say I make a bad pass and it hits the back of the defenders foot while his back is torwards me. Is that a kick ball?

    • @OfficialsInstitute
      @OfficialsInstitute  7 місяців тому

      Probably not, as if the players back is to you, the probability of that player seeing and intentionally kicking it is very low. But ultimately comes down to the judgement of the officials.
