Exception for Live Telecasts Sample Clauses

Exception for Live Telecasts. Live telecasts of football and basketball games, when permitted, may operate under the following guidelines upon approval of the Executive Director: (a) The intermission between the first and second quarters, the third and fourth quarters, and overtime periods may be extended from 60 seconds to 90 seconds; (b) The outlet may be granted one 90-second television time out during each quarter. This time out will be granted at the dead ball fol- lowing the change of possession, which occurs nearest to the midpoint of the quarter. This television time out will be granted regard- less of whether one of the two participating teams has called a charged time out close to the midpoint of the quarter. Additionally, this television time out will not preclude either one of the two participating teams from calling a charged time out near the midpoint of the quarter; and (c) All charged time outs called by either team will be a full 60 seconds in duration. (d) It will be the responsibility of the referee to see that these guidelines for television time outs are strictly adhered to. This agreement must be completed, signed and filed by the applying outlet with the FHSAA Office no later than 3 p.m. on the business day preceding the first date of the state series event for which radio broadcast, telecast or webcast rights are being applied. There is a $50 fee for being late.
