Rule
25.2.1.

Establishing a pivot foot by a player who catches a live ball on the court:

• A player who catches the ball while standing with both feet on the court:

   ▬ The moment one foot is lifted, the other foot becomes the pivot foot.

   ▬ To start a dribble, the pivot foot may not be lifted before the ball is released from the hand(s).

   ▬ To pass or shoot for a goal, the player may jump off a pivot foot, but neither foot may be returned to the court before the ball is released from the hand(s).

• A player who catches the ball while he/she is progressing, or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball:

   ▬ If, after receiving the ball, a player shall release the ball to start his/her dribble before his/her second step.

   ▬ The first step occurs when one foot or both feet touch the floor after gaining control of the ball.

   ▬ The second step occurs after the first step when the other foot touches the floor or both feet touch the court simultaneously.

   ▬ If the player who comes to a stop on his first step has both feet on the court or they touch the court simultaneously, he/she may pivot using either foot as his/her pivot foot. If he/she then jumps with both feet, no foot may return to the court before the ball is released from the hand(s).

   ▬ If a player lands with one foot he/she may only pivot using that foot.

   ▬ If a player jumps off one foot on the first step, he/she may land with both feet simultaneously for the second step. In this situation, the player may not pivot with either foot. If one foot or both feet then leave the court, no foot may return to the floor before the ball is released from the hand(s).

   ▬ If both feet are off the court and the player lands on both feet simultaneously, the moment one foot is lifted the other foot becomes the pivot foot.

   ▬ A player may not touch the court consecutively with the same foot or both feet after ending his/her dribble or gaining control of the ball.

25.2.2.

A player falling, lying or sitting on the court:

  • It is legal when a player falls and slides on the court while holding the ball or, while lying or sitting on the court, gains control of the ball.
  • It is a violation if the player then rolls or attempts to stand up while holding the ball.
