NF Officials Manual 2001-03, Prerequisites for Good Officiating.
Page 9, General Principles

“19. Cooperation: Each official must give full cooperation to coworkers and to the assistant officials. Neither official is limited to calling fouls or violations in their own area of the court. Each official should call fouls wherever they occur and be prepared to help other officials at all times.”

BktBallRef has the right idea on this. You and your partner have to get together and talk before the game about many situations.

Unfortunately this is a profession/semi-profession/calling of egos that can get bruised now and then when you step on someone’s feet. So be ready for some heat but you must be true to your principles to be true to the game.
