It is not about the table not informing you. It is about a free throw going on when it should not have. 2 officials have put the ball in play and the other is still trying to get the replacement in. Have you made the ball live because the lead began play or is the ball still dead because the trail was not ready.
You do NCAAW? Bob has listed the NCAAW interp. Is that what you are going to use in your High School game?
I know this is not going to happen in one of your games. So, pretend you are giving one of your clinics and this question comes up.

Yes I have done NCAAW for the past 3 years. And the rules to my knowledge is not any different between NCAAM and NCAAW on this specific issue. Unless you can give me a specific ruling, then we can work off of that.

I am going to tell them the exact same thing I told you right now. I realize that is hard for you to understand, but this is preventable. And unless you are aware of some rule that I am not that suggests otherwise, that is what I am going to do. This is not a correctable error, this is mostly a table problem. We are not scorekeepers. We can only correct this situation if and when it happens. But to suggest that you cannot as the lead watch your partners and see that they are dealing with something, that is just irresponsible. If you look at the T in 3 person mechanics and his head is turned, you need to wait a second. No different if I am the new trail taking the ball out on the endline in the backcourt. Make eye contact and get some kind of confirmation that no subs are coming or there is nothing we need to wait on (injury, equiptment issues, fight in the stands). And in a throw in position you are much more spread out over the court. Why is that hard to do? Why does that have to be a problem? Dead ball officiating is one of the most important times in officiating. Not very hard to do as well.
Peace
