One question I do have for everyone is this following situation. Team A turns the ball over in their front court, team B now has the ball and a foul is called by the new trail. In two person do you still switch? Thanks for the info.

Standard FED two-person mechanics: Switch, every time there is a foul. Front court, back court, shooting, technical, intentional, player control, offense, defense, ... it doesn't matter. If you were at the "east" end of the court, you'll now be at the "west" end of the court. There is no such thing as "no long switches" under standard FED two-person mechanics.

This is sometimes modified by the state (see Tx.), and sometime modified by agreement of the partners (for example, I prefer to put the official who called a T away from the table).
Hmmmm....to embellish what Bob said, my assiciation--in Ohio--taught us (at both camps I attended this summer anyway...) that they don't want to see the long switch anymore. Beware, however, that I only attended three person camps, and not two person....
