1) Get rid of Alternating Possession and conduct a jump ball for all held balls and jump ball situations.

Now a high school game lasts about 75-90 minutes. How much time will all these jump balls tack on?? If anyone was reffing before the AP arrow, how long did the average game take back then??
I remember doing girls games and lower level games of both boys and girls prior to the alternating possession. What a MESS! Jump balls every minute! NO WAY would I go back to jump balls.

My rule change: Fouls at the end of the game - have the team who is fouled have the choice of either a FT or a throw-in. This would force B to really earn the ball back by playing good defense. It would cut down on an interminable march to the FT line. I think international rules have or had this at one time.
