Canada yes.
I don't think this is a directive by anyone above our local level. As previously stated it supposedly helps us reduce game interruptions to hand the kid the ball and say you guys have x seconds to shoot (When its below 10). I don't care one or the other so if that's what my partner is doing I'll go along.
I personally feel we would have less game interruptions if our old school officials would stop combining to call 35-50 fouls every game.
