Airborne Shooter…4.1 • An Airborne Shooter (ABS) is a player who has released the ball on a try/tap and has not returned to the floor. • All ABS were first airborne players • Any player who is “in the air” is an airborne player. He may have control of the ball or not have the ball at all • The AB player becomes an ABS when he releases the ball for a try/tap for goal • An ABS returns to the floor, and is no longer considered a shooter when one foot touches the floor • The ABS is considered to be in the “ACT OF SHOOTING” NOTE: It is critical for the covering official to visually stay with the shooter until he returns to the floor
Airborne Shooter…4.1 • If the ABS is fouled… he is fouled in the “Act of Shooting” • If the ABS commits a foul… even though the ball has been released the foul will be a PLAYER CONTROL FOUL • The basket cannot be counted when a Player Control Foul occurs, even if the ball has passed through the basket (this is one example when a personal foul occurs while the ball is dead) • Once any player has jumped (shooter or non-shooter) and is airborne… the defender cannot move so as to interfere with the Airborne Player’s “Landing Area” REFEREE THE DEFENSE!!!
