Did he give you a 3 pack of whistles for the good words?

Now just a few things I noticed about the 3-man mechanics that I have questions on.
1. Although I thought that on fouls the calling official goes tableside, on fouls which occured in the "new" back-court there seemed to be no switching other then the trail moving to the side of the court on which the ball was to be thrown in. My question is what sort of rules govern switching after fouls.

No switch (everyone will slide) *unless* you shoot free throws. If FTs then the calling official goes table side

2. In two man the non-administering official always handles subs, but in three man who's responsible for bringing the subs in?
|
Whoever is closest, usually T table side or C opposite

3. Who notifies the coach and the disqualified player after 5 fouls?
|
Really depends on who is in the least deep sh1t with the coach
Calling official is fine, whoever is at tableside is fine. For instance, in my game tonight my partner who T'ed the coach ran over to tell the coach that the foul I called was #5. I put up a hand and told him to stay put, I got it. [quote][b]
