8. Timer calls out game time at : Every score (both teams) Every penalty (both teams) Every time out (both teams) Before the game, ask the ref what times they want called out to them ie: 2:40 minute warning at last quarter Sometimes coaches ask you to call the time at certain points of the game. Timer Responsibilities There is an APP for that

9. Timer: Penalties Technical Foul: Player serves 30 seconds Personal Foul: Players serves 1, 2 or 3 minutes Penalty time is regulated by timer. Count out loud to the player during last 10 seconds. state “ release”…to allow him back into game. (“…3,2,1,release”) Penalty time runs with game time. If the game clock is stopped (a whistle is blown) then the penalty time is stopped. If there is still time on a penalty at the end of the quarter, the player finishes serving it at the beginning of the next quarter.

10. Timer: Penalties Releasable vs Non-releaseable: Releasable Most penalties are releasable. If the OTHER team scores, the penalty is released no matter how much time is remaining. Non-Releasable Typically for unsportsmanlike conduct. This penalty has to be served in entirety.

16. NEW (2013): Fouling out HIGH SCHOOL Under both NCAA and NFHS rules, if a player accumulates 5 minutes of personal fouls (regardless of the number of fouls), that player has fouled out of the game. Notify the nearest official immediately; the player will serve his penalty but then must exit to the bench area and another player will take his place on the field. Technical fouls have no bearing on fouling out of a game. 78 / 56 4 personal fouls or 5 ‘personal foul’ minutes All unnecessary roughness calls are now non releasable. Checks to the head are also non releasable and 3 minutes (but some still call them for two minutes. Laminated sheet listing fouls will be kept with home team set up equipment For HS only: A player or coach receiving two non-releasable unsportsmanlike conduct fouls is expelled from the game. Notify the officials when a player receives his second non-releasable USC penalty.
