Mechanics Question

[nine01c]

The reason I am asking is that it seems to be a "new mechanic" expected of high school referees who are actually women's college refs. Or, should I say, high school refs who work with women's college refs (doing high school games). I have been specifically instructed that the HS mechanic is for the ref to go to the spot where the ball went OOB (make player stand where you are), and your partner will adjust (Trail will go opposite). The "theory" is that by bouncing across the lane, you will not "force" your partner to painstakingly adjust to the other side. I take exception to deviating from the proper HS mechanic. If my partner (or myself) can't walk/jog/saunter to the other side of the court, he shouldn't be reffing a HS game.
If two college refs are working together and want to use college mechanics, fine. But in a HS game with a HS partner, strictly HS mechanics should be used, IMO.
