I corrected an official for this last week. We were watching the varsity game after our JV game, and they had a foul as time expired in the 2nd quarter. V coach was livid, and his players were gathered around the bench during H's free throws, but above the FT line extended. Buddy said they should be above half court and we discussed it briefly.

In the locker room, varsity ref confirmed the rule, then said "but it's protocol in HS to move them back to the division line." Fair enough.
