Lightbulb Almost never.

I do not think this is a good idea to do for the most part. You do not need to check, if there is a problem, they will call you over. You also give the coaches and assistant coaches an opportunity to take a cheap shot at you or over hear something you do not want to at that moment. Stay away from the benches at that moment and check during other dead ball situation, if you get the chance. If there ever is a problem the coaches and table people will call you over themselves about a problem.

NFHS Mechanics Manual indicates that referee should proceed to division line in preparation for throw in between quarters.

However, I notice a number referees who take the time to review score book not only at intermission, but also between quarters.

Your thoughts?
