Is a violation or a foul more serious?

Answer 1

- A foul is when the opposite teams accidently hits you, trips you, kicks you, etc but a violation is when say your shooting a free throw and you step over the free throw line when your shooting or someone else enters the key to early or your taking the ball out of bounds and they reach across the boundry line!!

Answer 2

A foul ball is any ball that is hit and is outside of the foul lines. A foul tip is when only the very edge of the bat connects with the ball, generally still allowing the ball to land behind the batter.

Answer 3

A foul is a term used to describe an infraction punishable by a direct free kick. There are 10 such infractions.

A foul can happen without misconduct. "Player X pushed player Y. Direct free kick."

A foul can also be misconduct. "Player X performed a reckless slide tackle. Caution + direct free kick."

There can be misconduct without a foul. "Player X persistently dissented the referee's decisions. Caution awarded the next time the ball is out of play."

Answer 4

Generally, the answer is no.

For instance, a lane violation is not a foul. When a player is shooting a free throw, the other players underneath the basket are not allowed to enter the key until that player releases (shoots) the ball. If they enter the key before the player shoots the ball, that is a lane violation, and the player will shoot another free throw (unless he made the shot).

Thus, a violation is not always a foul.
