Proper center ball release and replay rules
The referee blows the whistle after the ball reaches its highest point during center put in play. After tapping by a center, the ball becomes in play when touched ground. If the ball touches the floor without either center touching it, the referee restarts the center put in play at the same place.
How is ball put into play after out of bounds
The ball is put back into play by the player inside the court choosing to throw bounce or roll the ball to a teammate. The action restarts play with a legal pass or outlet from the boundary. The method is up to the player who receives the restart.
Referee assigns throw in by nearby opponent
When the ball goes out of bounds the referee designates the opponent nearest to the spot where it left the court to throw the ball in. This is the customary method used to restart play.
San Diego Youngster Promising Signed by Indians
