Or do you give him some sort of signal from the reporting area? Assuming you have already switched and your partner has assumed the lead to administer foul shots, do you then assume your partner's new position and negate the switch?

If I know before I report that it's the fifth foul, I tell my partner as I'm on the way to report.
If I don't know, he'll usually know it from the reaction of the player, or the horn, or the announcer and be on his way over to the reporting area (while watching the players -- we "square up" on this.

)
Failing that, as I'm walking to my position, I tell my partner, "Gary -- that's five on #32." He goes out and handles the rest.
