• Coach delays occur when bench personnel prevent the prompt resumption of play.
  • Examples include:
    • Bench personnel entering the playing court before player activity has ended
    • Failure to have the court ready for play following the final horn ending a timeout
    • Failing to resume play immediately after the second warning horn or when a disqualified, ejected, or injured player must be replaced
  • One warning is issued to the head coach for each type of coach delay.
