2nd Half Position
In a 2-person crew, where do the officials stand to observe warmups before the second half? My partner last night said the R. observes the visiting team for both halves; I said he stands opposite the home team bench, observing the visitors in the first half and home team in second half.
My IAABO mechanics manual says:
"When returning to the court, assume pregame warmup positions."
The last NFHS mechanics manual I have (2003-04) says essentially the same thing: "Officials assume the same positions as in pregame to observe the warmups."
So which "position" does this refer to? A physical spot on the court or observing the same team?
