Last-second shot coverage in transition
Had a gentlemen's disagreement last night regarding when the old lead becomes the new trail in transition, catalyzed by two turnovers with fewer than two seconds on the clock.
The NFHS manual seems not to cover this explicitly. What say you all? |

In a last second transition, the convention here is that he lead will take a shot in the frontcourt until the trial is in the frontcourt. You don't want a trail having to make that call from 80 feet away after administering a throwin on the backcourt endline with 2-3 seconds on the clock or racing to get to the frontcourt and making that call on a sprint.

I posted out of interest in how this is handled by others at all levels. |

It should be the Trail in 2 man and Center/Trail, opposite the table in 3 man.
It should be that way always unless you discuss to change it by circumstance. For example, if you have a length of the court play that might be in front of the lead or a tableside official then that should be the change. Usually during the last few seconds or even minute if you have time to discuss. Peace

But, that doesn't really answer your question. Here, at least in my pre-games, if we're all in the FC or all in the BC, T has responsibility. Otherwise, if it's a long pas and a short shot, L has it; if it's a short pass and a long shot, T has it. |

1) Have both (all) officials stand on the endline, facing the clock, with all the action on the playing court behind them. 2) Just officiate and use your ears -- just as we do when there are clocks at both ends, on both sides and above each backboard. |
