Test Question
« on: August 15, 2012, 12:53:34 PM »
"Nonplayer and unsportsmanlike fouls are not considered when determining if a period ends or must be extended"

Rule references are 3-3-3a and 3-3-4b. 

So I think the answer the test makers are shooting for is a True.  However, the wording of the question makes it impossible to answer this true.  All fouls are always "considered" when determing to end or extend a period.  i'm thinking it's gotta be a false answer.

Thoughts.

"The only whistle that kills a play is an inadvertent one"

"The only thing black and white in officiating is the uniform"

Answer is true.  Nonplayer fouls and unsportsmanlike fouls are treated as dead ball fouls and do not prevent a quarter or game from ending.

As usual, the test's verbiage falls over itself. A better sentence: "No period is extended for nonplayer or unsportsmanlike fouls."
