Philosophy for Calling Fouls
By Clarence Woody, Clinician
- Game management with continuity and flow throughout
- Did a player gain an advantage?
- Was a player placed at a disadvantage?
- Did the contact affect the play of the ball?
- Is the play rough?
- Bread and butter calls
- when the shooter is fouled
- play in close to the basket in the paint area and around the 3-point arc
- contact on the press situation
- block/charge calls
- Call fouls at the end of the game even though they may decide the outcome.
