Though theoretically it could be the same ONE guy, since s/he becomes T after every foul call, he'll become L once the ball goes the other way. Actually, in a really sadistic way, that would help ensure consistent calls at each end.

I have heard both explanations from differing sources in my association. It seems to vary between "no long switches- period" to "no long switches unless we're shooting". I've been pregaming this. Results have varied.

I dunno... Despite the manual, it seems strange for me to be at midcourt when my partner calls a foul in backcourt on a press, then reports and heads the rest of the way to administer while I stand there, watch players and then take 2-3 steps to my position during the FTs. Makes me feel like I'm not doing anything.

Me too, and we've been doing something similar, here in Connecticut, for three seasons. My first year was the worst. In this situation, as the lead, I was used to hustling to make the switch, and had to force myself to stop in my tracks. Also, in this situation, I'm still having a problem, as the trail, getting to the reporting area, and find myself reporting from the free throw line, using my presence there to let my partner know that we're not going to switch.
