GENERAL INFORMATION Intramural Basket Ball pe 2. 12. Rules Changes -- The following are the important rules changes: "any pleyor mey request a time-out under the same conditions as formerly pertained to a captain's request for time-out. If a player's request is recognized, the time-out should be granted and charged even though the captain does not desire ite" "Apter a free throw following 2 technical foul, play is resumed by a throw- in from out of bounds at mid-court by any player of the free thrower's team. "A change in wording is made in this Section, but the intent is altered only slightly. Ona free throw the ball is not in play until it touches the tring or backboard. Players must not touch tho lane, or its boundaries, but they may be in the air over the lane before the ball touches the ring or backboard, provided they do not disconcert the freo-thrower. When it becomes evident that the ball will not touch cither the ring or backboard, players are not forbidden to touch the ball, provided they do not delay the game by so doinge "If tho ball misses the ring, or fails to enter the basket, the free-thrower has made a violetion. This applios even though, after missing the ring, the ball touches the backboard and is tapped into the basket or against the ring. "If a pleyer in the act of throwing for goal is fouled from behind or is roughly handled, two froe throws are to be awarded whether the field goal is mado or missed." "The captain of the offended tcam is authorized to waive the free throw resulting from a personal foul and have 4 player of his team put the ball in play from out of bounds at mid-court. If two or more free throws are awarded, this option applies to the last free throw. The Officials will assume thet the froe throw is to be taken unless and until tho captain expresses his desire to waive the free throw; that is, the Officials are not to ask the captain for his choice each time a foul is called."
