Eckley,
You will find that when doing multiple games back-to-back, many of the "old-timers" do not like to switch very often. This requires more work by the officials.

I would suggest that you ask the league assignor what he/she expects. In our Catholic grade school league (our league is not a CYO league by affiliation), we are expected to switch after shooting fouls. I still prefer to switch after each foul -- it keeps mentally in the lower level games and I am not into "energy conservation" when I referee. Therefore, unless I am working with one of a very few remaining "old timers" (only about six of my fellow officials fit into this category), we switch on pretty much everything.
