    • A team is in a team foul situation when it has committed 4 fouls in one half.
      • When a team is in the team foul penalty situation, all subsequent player personal fouls committed on a player not in the act of shooting shall be penalized by 2 free throws, instead of a throw-in.
    • There shall be no 8 second violation rule.
