This is a great tool. Obviously it is NCAA so don't take any rules from it. I have tried to remove anything that doesn't apply to high school rules. Also,
the link is below.

https://www.eofficials.com/ESO_Repos...Conference.pdf

2007-08 NCAA Women’s Basketball
OFFICIALS’ PREGAME CONFERENCE
Prepared by Mary Struckhoff, National Coordinator of Women’s Basketball Officiating
2. Review 2006-07 Rules Changes:

 Point of Interruption – double personal fouls now POI; clarification regarding location of ball.
 Substitutions – bleeding player or player with lost/irritated/displaced contacts may remain in game if resolved within 20 seconds.
3. 2007-08 Points of Emphasis:
 Legal Guarding Position: Understand the rules regarding establishing and maintaining legal guarding position on a player with and without the ball.
 Displacement: Game STILL too physical, allow freedom of movement, free-flowing, exciting game.
NCAA Women’s Basketball – Officials’ Pregame Conference
Page No. 2
 Post play – post player defined, look for displacement, don’t WAIT to call foul.
 Ball handler/dribbler – no arm-bar, no continual/continuous contact. CALL THIS FOUL!
 Cutting – displacement, holding, pushing off intended path.
 Rebounding – POV, call displacement regardless of path of ball, right team getting ball.
 Screening – no wider than shoulder width stance, time/distance.
 Traveling
 Must be called consistently.
 Find the pivot foot.
 Replants by perimeter players.
 Post moves – spin move; step-thru move; repositioning after rebound.
 Unsporting Behavior/Bench Decorum
 Rules must be enforced and infractions penalized.
 Coaches must stay in coaching box – warn, then whack.
 Proper behavior in coaching box – minor=warning; egregious=whack.
 Communicate with/through head coach.
 Bench personnel required to be seated – WWW (wave, warn, whack).
 Be aware of player behaviors – step in, DON’T IGNORE.
 Mechanics
 Center and Trail positioning
 Pinch the paint in Lead
 Free-throw coverage
 Double whistles
 Help calls
4. NCAA Officiating Philosophy:
 Call the obvious foul(s): Illegal contact that is obvious MUST be called regardless of score, time remaining or foul count; OBVIOUS TRUMPS EVERYTHING!
 Allow freedom of movement: The ball-handler, dribbler, cutter or shooter must be permitted to move without being illegally impeded, re-routed or displaced. All displacement is a FOUL!
 Evaluate the impact/effect of the contact on the play – When contact doesn’t displace and has no effect on the execution of a play, it is incidental.
 Permit aggressive and physical play, but do not allow rough play: When players are aggressive and contact occurs, permit play to continue if it does not affect a player's speed, quickness, balance and/or rhythm. When displacement occurs or play becomes rough, blow the whistle.
 Use common-sense officiating: Maintained fairness and balance; call similar plays on both ends of the court; make quality calls that are significant; let play continue when incidental contact occurs; let common sense prevail.
5. Tempo/Tone:
 From the opening tip - quality calls.
 Officials dictate tempo/tone, not players.
 The guidelines regarding hand-checking, post play, illegally bumping cutters, traveling, palming the ball, illegal screens, three seconds and off-the-ball coverage must be emphasized in the pregame meeting before every game.
 Stay consistent as a crew throughout the game.
 Similar plays = similar calls.
6. Game Management:
 Review all dead-ball management situations.
 Stay with the play after you have called a foul or a violation.
 Step in between players and/or address volatile players; issue warnings if necessary.
NCAA Women’s Basketball – Officials’ Pregame Conference
Page No. 3
 Do not look away – slow down.
 Know team and personal fouls, score and time.
 No subs until DQ’d player replaced.
7. Clock Management:
 Game clock – starting (C and furthest official on inbound) and stopping.
 Shot clock awareness.
8. Basic Rotation/Floor Coverage (“Go where you need to go to see the play”):
 On-/off-ball coverage/areas of intersection.
 Referee your new area of responsibility immediately.
 Exception: If the C has started the five-second closely guarded count and the L has rotated to the C side, the L needs to continue to referee in the lane until the C stops the five-second count. Be patient in starting the five-second count.
 Lead may use accelerated pace in rotation - doesn’t have to finish.
 All officials in front court before lead rotates.
 Lock down near 5 seconds remaining on shot clock.
9. Lead Position:
 In transition - wide-angle (2-3 steps inside arc) or close-down (1 step outside lane) position.
 Gravitate to close-down position for best looks; facilitate rotations.
 “Pinch the paint” – may step into paint-area extended one or two steps on drives from C’s side or down middle; primary coverage for C; secondary coverage for L.
 Relax in the L and stay in your primary – CALLS ACROSS THE PAINT – don’t reach
 Keep the post LEGAL.
10. Center Position:
 Drive to basket, referee play all the way to the basket.
 Includes primary, secondary and all defenders.
 Step on court to get angles; don’t get too low (close to end line).
11. Trail Position:
 Look into the lane when L picks up ball at the free-throw line extended and below.
 Referee where L cannot. Stay wide. If necessary, step onto the court to get an open angle to the play.
 Don’t get too far into court; stay out of passing lanes; movement is only a few steps.
 FT – At 28’-mark unless players in backcourt.
12. Double Whistles:
 Don’t assume your partner’s call. Confirm/Affirm.
 Double whistles belong to primary. Release.
 Exceptions: too many in row, redemption, conference rookie-veteran.
13. Communication:
 Match-up problems (or any other concerns).
 Help calls: out of bounds, 2- vs. 3-point shot, tipped ball, count/cancel score.
 Signals: deflections, media.
 Shooters.
 Double whistles with different calls.
 Warnings to coaches.
 Partner distracted – ask questions/offer information.
 Timeouts: get together, especially late in the game - period-ending situations.
 Last-second shot
NCAA Women’s Basketball – Officials’ Pregame Conference
Page No. 4
14. Challenging Calls/Situations:
 Jump ball – No surprises.
 Illegal screens – Where are they set.
 Traveling – Strive for 100% accuracy.
 Out-of-bounds.
 Tripping.
 Player hit in the face.
 Curl play – C and T primarily responsible.
 Secondary defenders.
15. Atypical situations:
 Double personal/technical fouls; intentional; flagrant; fights.
 Consider intentional fouls on fast-break situations.
 Always know the status of the ball.
16. Key Points:
 Referee the defense; read the offense.
 Trouble spots – areas of intersection.
 Referee strong when ball goes away from you.
 Patient whistle: blocked shots, rebound situations, calls out of your primary.
 Concentrate and focus throughout the entire game.
 Call the obvious; get the play right; don’t guess – HIGH DEGREE OF CERTAINTY!
17. Crew Discussion:
 Rules questions/clarifications.
 Previous game situations.
18. Conference Requirements:
 Video.
 Rules Questions.
19. Conference with Bench Officials:
 General: Equipment; special court considerations; media present; monitor present; new rules.
 Scorer: Good eye contact; substitution for disqualified/injured player; recording delay warnings; give DQ info immediately; confirmation that game is over and there are no problems; info to locker room if T’s assessed.
 Timer: Timeouts, DQ; last minute of game.
 30-second: kick: reset; slow vs. fast; touch vs. possession; no reset on double foul; crew assistance.
