Girls 9th grade. 2 person. Brand new partner. I'm trail, Team A bringing the ball up, dribbling about 5 feet above the arc. Whistle from my partner at lead. Double dribble. I figured, well maybe I was screened from the dribbler's other hand, and I missed an obvious one. It happens.
Team A comes down later, takes a three pointer from the top of the key, again I'm Trail. I signal the three pointer, Lead signals 3 pointer. Now I know he's ball watching. At break, I tried to emphasize with him that if both of us are watching the shooter, who is watching the paint. He assured me he can see the whole court, and I'm missing many violations, and he's having to call them.
At another point in the game, I'm trail, and ball goes into Lead's primary, he squares up to take the play and I go off ball. A member of the offence is in the lane for about 5 seconds, so i call a 3 second violation. He informed me that is the Lead's call, and I shouldn't be calling in the paint.
At that point all I thought about was get in, get done, get out
