JRut,
I will go over the website I attached again, but it seemed to follow the guidelines I read in the NFHS Officials Manaul a few months back. I will compare them again to be sure. The primaries are the same as I learned in camp.

The problem with the program is it is not a very good diagram. Also in NF mechanics, there is no dual area anymore (Lead and Trail below FT line extended and within the 3 point line). They got rid of that about 4 to 5 years ago.

The point is if you want accurate mechanics diagrams; buy the books that are already in place. Looking for shortcuts does not work very well. And these mechanics at all do not reflect CCA Men's or CCA Women's mechanics.

Actually this is a better depiction of what the NF wants at least.

NF Coverage area

Just saying.

Peace

I see what you are saying on the "dual" coverage. In my mind it was Lead only coverage for the dual shading. I cannot argue with your points of buying the existing, sanctioned books and diagrams. However, some people learn and retain better with other visual aides. The transitioning slides, pregame and time out slides appear helpful, yet simplified.

I do not know any mechanics or rules outside of NFHS...... first year; lots to learn. Thanks for your detailed explanation.

He asked for a court diagram. There is an actual visual aid used in the book.

Also the OPer did not say anything about which level he was looking for. You do not have to be a certain year to have some knowledge those different levels. It is never too early to learn.

Correct again. And he wanted 2 and 3 man. I only had three because I had been searching for as much info as I could get before attending my first camp.

Very true, but it is enough for me to just concentrate on NFHS at the moment. I have noticed many, somewhat experienced (3 plus years) officials still have problems understanding the basic rules.

I have learned an enormous amount just by reading this forum. There is a wealth of knowledge here. And lately a lot of BS that cracks me up.

I just want those to be aware that there are different mechanics. It is not really that big of deal. It is much better to know what the system you are working under than be surprised later by doing something that does not fit. Also understand that individual states might use variations of the NF mechanics. So a diagram of any kind might not fit for personal usage.
