Switch positions with your partner (not always necessary) lead administers all free throws, trail is responsible to start the clock if the shooter misses either the front end of a one-and-one or the second shot of a 2-shot foul. Also don't forget sustitutions, lane violations ect. GOOD LUCK!

When is it not necessary to switch positions with your partner?

I admit we sometimes don't switch on a T (shh -- don't tell) so that the official that calls the T can be away from the benches for a while, but we always switch (or at least intend to switch) on personal fouls.
