99% of the officials manual is written with the understanding that the play has settled into the frontcourt or the ball is in the backcourt (during a fullcourt press or a throw-in). Very little of it discusses transition. There are some plays, but I would like to see the NFHS dedicate an entire chapter in the next manual to transition coverage. Perhaps the CCA manual does a better job of this. I haven't read it so I don't know.
To handle this problem, one of my pre-game comments is usually, "Help each other in transition."
