Aren't basket interference and goaltending the same thing? Well, let's talk it out.

This is another Rule Review segment covering plays involving basket interference or goaltending situations. This video is dedicated to educating basketball officials on the proper way to look at basket interference and goaltending plays, including the four attributes that MUST be present to qualify as goaltending. Watching actual videos of basket interference and goaltending plays helps officials learn faster and retain rule information better. We can all learn together by continually discussing the rules as they are written pertaining to basket interference and goaltending restrictions and reinforce those rules by applying them to actual high school basketball videos. In this segment of Rule Review, the three basket interference and one goaltending video clips we reference are all high school games and involve different aspects to improving your ability to successfully recognize if a play indeed had an illegal act that should be rules as basket interference or goaltending. Video #1 After a missed shot, a ball is tipped in by a teammate however, since the ball was still within the cylinder when it was touched, it becomes basket interference. It is noted that only 1% of the ball needs to be within the cylinder to qualify for this basket interference restriction. Video #2 Another missed shot and another tip back but this time the official incorrectly calls a basket interference violation. The reason this play is not a basket interference violation is because the ball is below the ring, which is the reference point for the base of they cylinder, and therefore cannot be considered "within the cylinder." Video #3 A layup is attempted and blocked by the defender, but the officials missed the defender reaching through the basket to get to the ball. So, even though the ball is not within the cylinder, it is still basket interference since a player may not reach through the basket from below and touch the ball. Video #4 Another blocked shot on this play keeping the home team from scoring. But when evaluated on the four factors that qualify a goaltend it proves to actually be a goaltend. The four factors are, 1) It must be a try for a goal. 2) The ball must be on its downward flight. 3) The ball must be entirely above the ring. 4) It must have a legitimate chance of entering the basket. Watching video clips is a good way to stay connected to the skill of officiating basketball but true education and learning can more effectively be attained when each video is annotated with diagrams and shading to point out key teaching points. Taking away and remembering specifics on a rule such as basket interference and goaltending is easier when visual aids are used to present in a way that is easy to listen to and understand. The Officials Institute, and the Rule Review segment, creates videos that don't leave you guessing about whether there was a foul, violation or not. Even though we cannot officiate in slow motion or freeze frames, by watching and reviewing video video in this fashion, we are able to "retrain our brain" so we can start seeing plays more accurately when we do see them in real time and increase our ability to get the call right. #basketinterference #goaltending #basketballofficial #basketballvideoreview For more videos by the Officials Institute subscribe to this channel    / officialsinstitute   OR click the following video links Illegal Dribble    • An illegal dribble (double dribble) doesn'...  A Live Video Review - Verticality/Rebounding    • Let's review some video on verticality & r...   Basket Interference/Goaltending    • Aren't basket interference and goaltending...   Intentional Fouls    • Intentional fouls aren't all excessive con...   You can also find us on our website https://officialsinstitute.org/ Join our group on Facebook   / officialsinstitute   All rules referenced in this video are taken from the official rules book provided by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS).
