Basketball (IAABO + NFHS) Exam with accurate detailed || || || || || || || ||
solutions
What is the penalty for illegal uniform jerseys? - Penalize if or when a team member becomes a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
player. One direct technical foul is charged to the head coach, regardless of the number of
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
infractions. The head coach loses their coaching box privileges. The offended team is awarded || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
two free throws plus the ball for a designated-spot throw in at the division line opposite the table.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
PLAY: Team A is wearing their home white jerseys with black trim around the neckline and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
armholes. Substitute A-12 is beckoned into the game. A-12's jersey is white but does not have any
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
trim around the neckline. Ruling? - This is a legal jersey. A-12's jersey only needs to be the same
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
color and similar style to be legal.
|| || || || || ||
Can a team's roster have 0 and 00 listed for the same contest? - No
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
PLAY: A-12 is beckoned into the game. It is noted at this time that A-12's number is the same
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
color as the jersey. Ruling? - This is an illegal jersey. Beginning with the 2024-25 season, the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
jersey number may not be the same color as the jersey. Penalize when a team member becomes a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
player. One direct technical foul is charged to the head coach, regardless of the number of
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
infractions. The head coach loses their coaching box privileges. The offended team is awarded || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
two free throws plus the ball for a designated-spot throw in at the division line opposite the table.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
PLAY: A-7 reports to the official scorer to enter the game wearing a jersey with the number 7, as
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
listed in the scorebook. Team A's head coach has A-7 return the bench. Ruling? What if they had
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
become a player? Ruling? - No penalty is assessed. A-7 never entered the game to become a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
player and the scorebook remained unchanged. If A-7 had entered the game and participated, the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Team A head coach would have been charged with a technical foul for allowing A-7 to wear an
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
illegal uniform. Team B would be awarded 2 free throws plus the ball for a designated-spot throw
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
in at the division line opposite the table. Team A's coach would lose their coaching box privileges.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
If A-7 changed into a jersey with a legal number before entering the game, the number would
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
need to be changed in the scorebook, which would result in Team A being charged with a team
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
technical foul. Team A would not lose its coaching box privileges. || || || || || || || || || ||
, PLAY: With nine minutes remaining in pre-game warm-ups, Team A adds two names to the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
scorebook. With five minutes remaining, it is discovered that designated starter B-3 is wearing a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
different jersey number than what is indicated in the official scorebook. Ruling? - Both teams are
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
charged with administrative technical fouls and will start the game with one team foul that counts
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
toward the bonus. Since the penalties offset no free throws are awarded. The point of interruption
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
was the opening jump ball, so that is how the game will begin. When each team is assessed one
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
administrative technical foul before the game begins, a double technical foul has occurred. These || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
infractions are considered to have occurred during the same interval of time. || || || || || || || || || || ||
Do uniform shorts have to match the jersey? - No. Uniform bottoms should be like-colored, but
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
they don't have to match the jersey. Teammates may wear differing types of uniform bottoms such
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
as different styles of shorts, skirts, or pants. If the uniform bottoms remain in compliance with
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
logo restrictions, they may be rolled.
|| || || || ||
PLAY: A-5 enters the court with a rolled waistband that exposes only one manufacturer's logo.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Ruling? - One visible manufacturer's logo is allowed on the uniform bottoms. This is legal and the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
player is properly equipped. The player may not participate with rolled uniform bottoms if
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
multiple manufacturer logos are visible and/or if a drawstring is exposed. The player may
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
participate if they tuck the drawstring inside the uniform bottoms and unroll the waistband, so the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
multiple logos are no longer visible. || || || || ||
PLAY: During the pre-game warm ups, Team A enters the court wearing white jerseys and
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
various styles of uniform bottoms, all a similar shade of red. Ruling? - Team A is properly
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
equipped. Uniform bottoms are required to be like-colored but do not have to match the jersey.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
What is the penalty for wearing legal uniform bottoms that are not being worn properly? - An
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
official must direct a player to leave the game when the player is not wearing their uniform
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
bottoms properly and above their hips. A team may not avoid replacing the player directed to
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
leave the game for either of these reasons at the expense of a charged time-out.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
Headbands (any item that encircles the whole head) must meet all of the following criteria (4): - 1.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
circular design without extensions
|| || || ||
2. worn on the forehead or crown of the head
|| || || || || || || || ||
3. Non-abrasive and unadorned
