The free throw line in Jr. High is 15 feet from the backboard. This is the same distance at all levels of play. I have seen some sights that show a different distance for Jr. High Free throws but that was either a mistake or some local variance.

Answer 15 feet. The center of the goal is 13 feet 9 inches from the back of the free throw line.

This is why the arc falls off at 5 feet 3 inches ( 63") from the base line. ( The beginning of the corners )
