Basket Quiz Referee Rules Time and Court Layout
The rules state that if a foul is called as time ends the opposing team may shoot a free throw. If the foul is simultaneous with the whistle, time is allowed for a free throw. Extra periods have no fixed length beyond five minutes to break a tie, and as many as needed can be played. A properly laid out court keeps the backboard in bounds when hung according to rules.
