R passes to U1 or U2
NFS rules
It is my understanding that the "R" in a 3-person game can pass the toss to start the contest to either U1 or U2. In a game last night I saw the designated "R" pass the captains meeting, toss, start of each period, all other responsibilities to the U1... thoughts or somewhere I can reas this! |

I agree with JDW3018 can only pass on the toss to start the contest
or any overtime. All others duties are preformed by the designated "R". This "R" was not decided in the locker room, but, assigned that function by the state. The U1 and U2 knew who they were also. |

There is nothing in the rule book that says the R has to run the pregame meeting with capains and coaches
There are only 7 specific things outlined in the rulebook 1) toss 2) throw-in at quarter 3) decide if goal counts if officials disagee 4) declare the game a forefeit 5) resolve matters on which timer and scorer disagree and correct obvious timing mistakes 6) make sure arrow is right at half 7) Approve the score. And in all reality... the rules have changed 1 to allow another official to toss, but seriously do we really care who throws the ball in at qtr? And from the stands someone could determine the 5 duties were abdicated? Maybe the designated "R" was mentoring a n official and let him run the pregame--- Since he ran the pregame, he had him toss the ball and throw-it in... This may be to build the official's credibility with the coaches or some other reason. If this is all we could pick on in a game then we have way too much time on our hands... |

So to answer your question ... NFHS does assign duties to the officials acting in those capacities for the game (once they come on the floor). However, it does not mean that those assignments can't be changed before the game by the officials (in the locker room). That would be a regional or State directive as to whether or not they can change assignment responsibilities prior to a game.

In your scenario, it sounds as if the R as assigned by the association actually ceded his position as R. I don't know if that's acceptable where you are - different states/associations/assignors have different rules about that.
Where I was previously, the crew simply decided amongst themselves prior to the game who would be the R. Now, it's assigned and if you are assigned as R, you are expected to be the R. Finally, the way I read it is that the R can designate U1 or U2 to toss the jump ball, but still is responsible for executing all other duties assigned to the R. |
