Well it includes a section on how to select Table Personnel, How the Table Personnel are supposed to be trained, & how the local game management should handle the courtesy behind having the officals at the game.

Some of the recommendations for game management towards officials includes:
-Having a student representative act as a host to the officials, making sure the officials' needs are taken care.
-Make sure that all schools involved approve of the officiating crew.
-What's expected of the conditions of the facilty.

Some of the recommendations for selecting of Table Personnel includes:
-Everyone at the table be at least 21-22 years of age (based on how I'm reading the entry).
-Table personnel must have some sort of experience with basketball (Coaching, playing, or officiating).
-It's recommended that those selected remain neutral throughout the duration of their duties.

Recommendations for the training of Table Personnel includes:
-Providing a copy of the rule book, case book, & other materials availlable so that there is an understanding of the rules.
-Request/insist that the table personnel attend one of the state-sponsored rules interpretation meetings, & if possible at least one meeting of the local officals' association/group.
-Before the 1st game of the season, have the table personnel work through some intrasquad scrimmage games using real game conditions.
-Observe & evaluate the table personnel on their performance.

I would copy the entire entry word-for-word, but it'd take me about 20-30 minutes to type it all down on here.
