I reffed (two man) 6 games for a Y league last weekend, and have a question on where I should be positioned when teams are in transition.

When I was the trail during fast breaks (usually resulting in layups), I hustle down court to keep up with the play. However, I would often find myself at the free throw line extended, and out of position if the offense pulled the ball back out to set up an offense.

1. In transition, how far into the front court should the trail official go?

2. What should the trail official be watching during fast breaks layups?

Again - this is a two-man crew.

Also - what do you do when you find yourself as the trail beating the lead official down the floor? (Because the lead isn't in good enough shape to stay up with the play.)
