Consider this case:

In some NCAA games, one official will come out at 30min. prior to tip-off; thus, jurisdiction starts at that point. He/she then returns to the dressing room until 15min. If a fight breaks out during that interval, how would you deal with it?

Same goes for the situation where the entire crew comes on the floor, then leaves for the dressing room until a set point in time.
In men's NCAA, one official is *supposed* to be on the floor 30 minutes before the scheduled start time. I have never seen an NCAA game (men or women) when the refs were on the court more than 15 minutes before the tip.
