Actually this isn't right.

C reports table side, then 'goes back' and slides down to L. L stays tableside and slides up to C. Think about what you'd do if instead of a foul, A is bringing the ball up and B knocks it out of bounds on C's sideline. In that case, T comes over to administer, C slides down to L, L slides up to T.

In other words treat it like a violation, with the new trail administering all throw ins in the back court.

I just want to make sure I've got switching right in my head...first varsity game of the season tonight and second season doing varsity.

Calling official always remains tableside after reporting, correct?

Foul called in backcourt, no switch.

Everyone else rotates to fill in.

Except for the situation we're talking about in this thread - there is no switch on a foul called in the backcourt going to the frontcourt when no free throws are involved. In this situation the calling official (regardless of where he is) "goes back" to his position, though that position may then change based on where the throw-in is to be administered.

Calling official stays tableside on all fouls called in frontcourt, and on all fouls resulting in FTs.

fullor, you got it above.

It's really not that complicated if it's just broken down into two separate acts:

First, the foul (in the backcourt) is called and reported. The calling official returns to his position (whether T, C, or L).

Then if needed, the officials move to new positions based on the location of the throw-in the same as if a violation had occurred.

In reality you won't do this two-step process, but if you think about it this way you should be able to determine where you (and the other two officials) should go.
