The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.

A-1 drives to the basket for a breakaway layup.  A-5 follows the play, jumps and, after the ball has passed through the net, grabs the ring.  There is no safety issue involved.

Handle the situation.


The goal is good since the ball has already exited the basket.  A-5 will be charged with a technical foul for grabbing the ring.  Team B will be awarded two free throws and will receive a designated spot throw-in from the division line opposite the table.
