In this Crown Refs community rules session, Chris Velaoras and Mikaiya Moore led an in-depth breakdown of Rule 10: Fouls and Penalties, providing referees with the knowledge and clarity they need heading into the season. The discussion explored the different categories of fouls, including Flagrant 1 and Flagrant 2, using the WIF principle—windup, impact, and follow-through—as a practical framework to help officials assess severity on the court. The session also addressed contact dead-ball technical fouls and offered insight into how referees can apply judgment in live-game situations with confidence and consistency.

The group also reviewed the distinctions between Class A and Class B technical fouls, complete with examples that translate the rulebook into real-game application. Whether you’re a newer official or a veteran preparing for the upcoming refresher exam, this session offered a valuable chance to sharpen your understanding of penalties, improve consistency, and grow more comfortable handling high-pressure calls.
