Turnovers

Post by Darkson »

Right, now I am totally confused. :-?

I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere but I can't find it.

If a pass is missed but scatters/bounces into a square with a standing player from my side, who make their catch roll, then this doesn't count as a turnover (I assume they count the ball as being "juggled").

If I move into the square with the ball and fail to pick it up, the ball scatters and it's a turnover.

What happens if the ball isn't picked up but scatters into a square with a standing player from my side.

a) It scatters again and still a turnover

b) Player can attempted to catch it, but it's still a turnover.

c) Player can attempted to catch, and if successful I can continue my go.

d) Something else. (If it's this one please explain slowly and in plain english - it's Sunday mornng and I'm not awake yet!)

Answer is B.

The Catch roll is never by itself a turnover. The Pickup roll is a turnover as soon as it fails.

Thanks, I thought b) was correct, but I wanted it confirmed. :)
