We still get questions from people about the exact way you should apply the traveling rule. Off course things only were changed for players moving! But that doesn’t seem to do the trick. This clip by Peter McDonald is a nice one as a refresh, or as a way of helping teachers out when they educate new referees. Lees “Refresh Traveling” verder

Act of shooting or not?
Recently we showed a clip on our instagrampage with the question: is this a personal foul in the act of shooting yes or no. The response was huge. Over 100 followers shared their opinion, and what do you know: people were not all on the same page.We had 74 voters for ´yes, act of shooting´ and 44 ´no, it´s not´.

Screening
A screen is more than just a player that is moving in the way of the defender. Therefore it’s smart to figure out things that can happen when players are screening for their teammates. Lets get into the teaching materials. Lees “Screening” verder
Feedback for the refs
This time we’re not going to give a hint in a direction whatsoever. There’s something happening in the clip (okay I’ll give you that one) and we see refs acting. The question we’d like to pose is: What was good and what can be better if you give feedback to the collegues. And mind you: we’re talking collegues, so please keep it decent people!

A little spark…
A little spark can cause a lot of turmoil. Check the clip we received from Miss Molly Shaw (UK) and lets see if we can follow everything that happens. Because that’s what we need to do in order to understand what to do next after this. In some five days we will come back to this clip and tell what the refs did. Do you talk in your pregame on how to cover escalations? Or would you be surprised if something like this happens? Lees “A little spark…” verder
Defensive or U-foul?
Some defenders say there’s no such thing as stopping the Greek Freak. In this clip from the most recent worldcup there’s a foul on Giannis; I hope we all agree. But is it a normal defensive foul or do you think it merits more? Lees “Defensive or U-foul?” verder
Charge/block
In the never ending book of charge/block situations we discovered a new chapter: the charge/flop situation. This one is from the most recent worldcup. I hope we agree that defender has established LGP and therefor we can rule out blocking foul. But the question is: is he flopping yes or no? Or do you think it should be a no call?

Act of shooting teaching Materials
Sometimes referees have difficulties of deciding when the Act of shooting has started. Sometimes players have difficulties understanding when the act of shooting has started. FIBA has made a nice video with explanation. Please be smart and use the terms in the clip if you have some explanation to do. Also be aware of the change in interpretation that was made after they completed the video: if a player passes after being fouled in the act of shooting, the foul is to be considered as made NOT in the act of shooting. High level referees always told me: if you are doubting if it was act of shooting or not (and you should not be, cuz the rules are pretty clear), say yes it was and award the freethrows.

Charge/block
One can never check too many clips, for checking clips and understanding what happens makes life easier on court. This one is from our hero Sam Subby. Once again: Forza Italia 😉
But seriously: charge/block will always continue to keep people talking. So here’s another one. May I have your votes please? Lees “Charge/block” verder
