NFHS Case Play 2.4.4

Following pregame warm-ups, Team A returns to its dressing room. The referee has each team notified three minutes before the game is scheduled to begin. Despite this notification, Team A delays the start of the game for nearly two minutes by not returning to the court. The referee determines there is no excusable reason for Team A’s tardiness.

Team A is charged with a technical foul for delaying the start of the game by a minute or more.
