Because NFHS tells you to do this in their pre-season Guide?
An interesting point. Where do the Officials Manual and Pre-season Guide come in the hierarchy of manuals?
The Officials Manual deems this a "help situation", which "should be discussed thoroughly during the crew's pregame conference, so there will be no surprises on the court," but mentions nothing about "Changing", as the Pre-season Guide terms it. The sections about Three-Point Tries specifically state that it is the responsibility of the official whose area the player is in to signal the three, and little else about the other officials.
