The switch

[bigwhistle]

Rookie,

Since your bio says that you are in Houston, your partners are doing it the correct way. The TASO mechanics (which is what is used in Texas) is a hybrid of NCAA and NFHS. On nonshooting fouls you do not have to switch.

If you feel the need to switch because of being on the same end for an extended period of time or have called multiple fouls against that team, you or your partner may initiate a switch.

On shooting fouls, however, you switch each time.

I hope that this helps you.

Email me for any other questions that you have. I am also in Houston and am one of the chapter trainers.
