  3. Pre-game Conference • Do not overlook this important aspect of the game • Know your partner’s name & tendencies • Discuss switching, helping with press, displacement, & communication • Make sure to have the shooter & not to grant TO until all communication is done • Discuss situations (types of players & style of play) • Double whistles (foul vs. violation?) • Block/Charge • Rebounding fouls • Illegal screens • New rules (team control fouls) • Talk about dealing with technical fouls • Discuss last minute & clock responsibilities

  4. CAPTAIN’S MEETING & JUMP BALL PRODURES

  5. Pre-game Positions R U2 U1

  6. R checks both officials, gets players set, blow whistle, indicate directions & tosses U-1 checks table, counts players, check toss & chops clock; U-2 confirms with R U-1 R U-2 Jump Ball Positioning

  7. Ball Goes Right

  8. L – Mirror ball, referee the lane/post area: T – Get angle/position & on-ball coverage; 3 pt coverage C - Referee Off Ball, look for illegal screens, going through screens, displacement, holding, etc. Primary Areas of Coverage

  9. Lines of Responsibility • Lead only has baseline • If doing duties and looking at primary, WILL need help on some opposite side out of bounds • (blow whistle with arm up & look to “C”) • Trail has his/her sideline, midcourt line, and backcourt line (when appropriate) • “C” has own sideline (may help with midcourt if rotating or transition)

  10. Lines of Responsibility: T-Green, C-Yellow, L-Blue

  11. Throw-In Responsibilities • “L” may administer throw-ins on either side of player when staying in frontcourt • Administers all Throw-Ins below FT line extended • May bounce ball on sideline • “T” handles all throw-ins in the backcourt, regardless of location (“bump and run,” if necessary) • “T” may bounce any sideline or end line throw-in (may depend on defensive pressure) • “C” out of bounds, always have 2 officials ball side for throw in

  12. End Line Throw-Ins in the Frontcourt • L may administer throw-ins on either side of player when staying in frontcourt

  13. Shot & Rebound Coverage • Lead should not be positioned within lane lines • Both C and T should close down on shots • C is primarily responsible for weak side rebounding

  14. Shot & Rebound Coverage

  15. Three-Point Shot Coverage • Lead should not be positioned within lane lines • If both C and T indicate the 3-pt attempt, T should referee the defense on the shooter and stay with the shot; C should release and cover rebounding • C/T should mirror the other official’s “good” signal

  16. Lead help on 3pt shot • Only on fast break will Lead Signal 3pt. Signal • Trail will still mirror 3pt. Signal and will go up if good w/ C mirroring made basket

  17. ROTATION SEQUENCES Lead Official Closes Down, Prepare for Rotation

  18. When to initiate rotation at Lead YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR PERIPHERAL VISION AT ALL TIMES!!!!! • The ball is below the free throw line extended (inside 3 pt. line) for an extended period of time • If in the frontcourt (fast break) all 3 officials and the ball are in frontcourt status and the ball is weak-side • Want two people strong-side (ball-side) if possible • The player has received the ball weak-side and … • Is definitely putting the ball into the post to a big man/woman (Think SHAQ…) • Has consistently beaten his/her man and looks to drive a lot • Person at 3 pt line, looking to drive baseline also

  19. When not to rotate? • Quick jump shots • Ball is being tossed around the arc or dribbled around the arc without making a drive to the basket • When all 3 officials and the ball are not in the frontcourt • Last few seconds to quarter or half • Loose ball when no team possession is gained • Exception: To get a better angle for a foul/jump ball • Then fix the move by going back to original position

  20. Lead Initiates Rotation, Trail goes to New C, and C goes to New T

  21. Responsibilities while rotating • Lead must swivel head so that he/she still can call “old” primary area (lane area) until fully established in new position • Don’t pivot early, get to new primary the pivot finishing rotation • Trail & “C” must focus on primary area until Lead gets into new “Lead” position • STAY WITH COMPETITIVE MATCHUPS AS NEEDED • Use body language so partner know you are staying with players

  22. Lead has ball coverage, Trail looks off ball (screens) & fouls above shoulders on shot Center Official referee off ball & rebound fouls Full Rotation: New Areas of Coverage

  23. BETTER TO HAVE 2 C’S THAN 2 TRAILS WHEN ROTATING!

  24. DO NOT WAIVER! IF YOU’RE GONNA ROTATE..GO!!

  25. How to fix a rotation • During frontcourt team possession • Use verbal or non-verbal communication with fellow officials • During change of possession (going the other way) • Easiest way to fix is for Old lead that rotated to go back to original position and work new Trail position • If old Trail recognizes switch but new trail does not, Old lead (New Trail) can tell official to bump up to New Lead • If old Trail does not recognize switch (may have 2 new leads), verbally tell person to be at new C

  26. Fixing a Unnecessary Rotation, Quick Turnover, Lead Banana Back

  27. Trail Positioning • Work the angles and see space • Move to improve • Don’t get stuck too far in court • In way for transitions

  28. When the “C” can initiate rotation • Team just established frontcourt possession on “C” Side • Player is feeling pressure or is being trapped • “C” must get angle and may need to go “High” to see the players/play (Goes to a Trail position) • Lead must recognize situation and rotate over • Trail must recognize and help at 1st then move down to “C” • Only use when appropriate and this may be missed by the Lead and Trail (be aware of situation)

  29. Center Initiates Rotation: Trap on Center Side by Mid-court

  30. Press Coverage • Old Lead/New Trail stay out of bounds until ball goes above FT line • Has ballhandler & defender • Center stays at FT line & moves w/ second wave of players • L should have deepest player in front and boxed-in • All officials prepare for help calls

  31. C responsibilities in transition • Center may have ball responsibilities on quick passes • In any transition, can call across court to other sideline • May have best view across paint even in front court play

  32. Foul Reporting Mechanics • Only 2 officials should be moving • 3rd official dead ball officiating • Calling official freeze after call & notify players/partners situation • Report Foul & Stay Table side • Hustle around players & Stop in reporting area (Federation mechanics) • Table side official go to calling official’s previous area for throw-in or prepare FT • Do not cross vision line of reporting official

  33. Trail gets ball for throw-in going outside players & pointing to spot of throw-in C watches all players during dead ball Center Official watches all players during foul report Lead whistles foul, pauses, gets info & communicates with partner situation, points to spot of throw-in Foul Reporting Mechanics: Lead non-shooting foul on baseline

  34. Lead gets ball, goes to opposite baseline for throw-in & point to spot of throw-in Trail Official watches all players during foul report & rotates to New C position Center whistles foul, pauses, gets info & communicates with partner situation, points to spot of throw-in Foul Reporting Mechanics: Center non-shooting foul on baseline
