Title: Play Clock on penalty that is waved off
Post by: Official_21 on September 04, 2021, 08:18:02 AM

Had this situation at my game last night.

Flag thrown, but picked up & penalty waved off.
I set the play clock to 25 secs & R resumes play on the whistle.

Did I get this right? I had a gut feeling the play clock should have been at 40 secs, but as mentioned above, I set it at 25 secs & was never corrected.

Normal admin stoppage, 25 second play clock.

Good thing I didn't listen to my gut this time around  ;D

Here's another possible way remember.  If/when the referee ever has to put the ball in ready for play from a stoppage of play it's always a 25 second play clock unless that RFP is following a defensive injury or defensive helmet coming off.  Hope that helps.

Good tip, I'll try to remember that.
