According to the IAABO Two Person Manual, there is (by the book) no differentiation between administering technical foul free throws, intentional foul free throws, or any other type of free throw shooting situation. Two officials are involved in all free throw situations, the trail has his coverage responsibilities, and the lead has his coverage responsibilities, including bouncing the ball to the free throw shooter.

Note: Over thirty years ago there were many free throw shooting situations where the trail handed the ball to the free throw shooter, always from the shooter's left side, but that ancient mechanic went the way of the buggy whip.
