Off topic. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but concerning the courts zones, shouldn't the neutral zone ALWAYS be the biggest zone according to 2.2.2.2 and 2.2.2.7? The rules dictate that every court is to have the same distance from Attack Line to Baseline. This distance is always the same whether on a high school sized court or a NCAA regulation basketball court. The length that often gets sacrificed is the size of the neutral zone. On DePaul's Ray Meyer courts, the court is only 80 ft long. The distance from Attack Line to are exactly the same as it would be on a NCAA basketball court, but the neutral zone is only 20 feet wide instead of 34, 14 feet difference or 7 feet to each side. This is a necessary adjustment just because the smaller courts are so much more common in the League... and reserving court time is cheaper/free on these smaller courts. But the Attack Line is defined as the distance from the Baseline. So the throw distance should be constant across every court.

The neutral zone is the only zone that should have its size changed. The defensive zones should always remain the same distance to ensure throw distance is constant no matter where a team plays like Zig said. Teams should deff make sure this is enforced this upcoming year, host teams should ALWAYS measure the attack lines before every tournament.
