2017-18 NCAA Changes

NCAA-M

Just getting around to reading JD Collins' latest memo. Got really happy when I read this in regards to upcoming CCA Manual changes:

7. Lead position – Throw-ins:
a. During a half court throw-in, the lead should position himself according to page 63 of the Mechanics Manual. We are choosing to go inside the player too often.
b. During a backcourt baseline throw-in, the lead official will be given the option to stay on one side of the lane and bounce the ball to the offensive player on the other side of the lane when there is no pressure. This will decrease the number of times the center and trail have to reset and change position. This will be detailed in the fall clinics.

NOTE: Obviously "b." should actually be referring to the Trail, not the Lead.
