Just got an email from my assignor and read it on the NCAA Arbiter site from John Adams:
"There are some updated mechanics now posted on the web site that deal with two issues. The first deals with the calling official, on all fouls, ALWAYS going opposite the table and the second deals with a mechanic to be used when calling a blocking foul on a secondary defender, "under the basket". This new mechanic will be very beneficial in identifying this automatic "under the basket" blocking foul by a secondary defender, to the media, coaches, players, fans and your officiating partners."
If the L calls a team/player control in the front court, they will either go C or new L opposite the table; no pushing. If you call a team/player foul L opposite table, you report, go the length of the floor, and become the new L opposite table.
If you call a call a blocking foul for a defender being under the basket, you give a preliminary signal of "blocking" and then point to the floor in the vicinity underneath the basket.
