Setting/ Ball Handling Guidelines

• The following criteria can be used to develop consistency when judging ball handling as the first referee:

• Only the contact point should be considered when judging legality.

• Outside influences such as player technique, spin, coaches’ expectations or crowd reaction should not be considered when judging the legality of the contact.

• There is no body/ball position or playing technique that automatically results in illegal contact.

Setting/ Ball Handling Guidelines

• Below are tips to use when assessing second ball contacts:

• A player in good position must play the ball without discernible double contacts.

• Less severe judgment is applied to a contact by a player who makes a challenging or spectacular play while maintaining a legal play.

• Mishandled balls resulting in a blatant fault should still be called, regardless of the challenging or spectacular nature of the play.
