Starting 2026 with a discussion on Holding. This is OI LIVE. NFHS basketball rules.

Описание: On OI LIVE this month, January 15, 2026, we are talking about Holding. Officials Institute (OI) Chairman of the Board, Joshua Schroeder, leads the group with videos showing all plays involving holding. Holds on rebounds or a hold on a post up or even holding on a dribbler at the division line. Every play will involve some sort of holding situation.

OI LIVE meetings are conducted every month with the intent to provide instruction to basketball officials and assist in helping everyone get better. If you are interested in participating in these meetings, become a member by clicking the link.

OI believes that watching and discussing videos in a group brings better awareness in how to apply the rules of basketball in real game situations and provides a fun and supportive environment for officials to ask questions and share philosophies by fellow officials. Asking questions while analyzing video is a valuable learning tool and by giving repetitive looks at the same play increases retention of rules and philosophies of rules. All videos shown are actual high school basketball videos.

The video of this online meeting includes 11 various video clips and a bonus clips.

Watching video clips is a good way to stay connected to the skill of officiating basketball but education and learning can more effectively be attained doing it in a group with some direction from a key speaker. Remembering specific rules and application of those rules is easier when visual aids are used to present in a way that is easy to listen to and understand.

The Officials Institute, and their monthly video review meetings, create a fun environment that allows participants to speak up and voice their opinions on plays without negative retribution or rebuttals. Everyone's opinion is worth something and adds to the overall learning experience that everyone should strive for, regardless of years of experience. Breaking down film in slow motion and freeze frames helps to "retrain our brain" so when we see the same plays in real time we are in a better position mentally to get the call right.
