Those are all that I can think of off the top of my head.

I was refering to the court coverages. Besides the fact the lead takes the three point shooter in the corner there are no real differences. I could name many of the same differences in the men's game from NF too, and I believe you referred to that as to where you were getting your philosophy for not rotating. We were talking about rotations not all the differences between the men's, women's and federation mechanics. Wording in "rotation philosophy"? Not sure what you are talking about here, maybe the difference between center and slot? All the other things you mentioned just make it much easier to officiate the game. That's why the NBA does it much the same way or vice versa. All that aside, we are discussing if we should rotate strong side or not in the above mentioned situation. I say yes and would do so everytime. I have never heard at any camp I have gone to stay and referee as the lead on the weak side of the floor. Would you go from strong side to weak side if just the ball and two players were strong side? I wouldn't. I'd wait for the players to come across to me. The players, especially post players are going to go where they can get the ball, and if the ball is on the opposite side of the floor from them, they are going to go across and get in position to get the ball. If you are weak side, why not go strong side and beat them there? If the ball gets swung..........go back. If you don't rotate and they start to move across now you are too late.
