Thanks Mick

As I thought about it more, I would assume that most refs hand off in Jr. High (which is what I coach) because it takes too long to try to point out or explain to the 12-13 year old player where to stand. The hand off lets you as a ref set the spot for the throw in, because it seems to be common for the players to keep moving toward the ref if he plans on "bouncing" the ball to him. So then the ref has to say "back up", or "hold your spot" etc.

After a few Jr. High games I would think most guys would give up on the bounce and just hand-off for simplicity sake.

Thank you for the clarification though, I really thought in high school you were supposed to hand-off.
