NFHS Free throw change
I was told that starting next year, the calling official (2 person) will go to the table on shooting fouls, meaning that as the trail on free throws, you are directly in front of the table and benches on free throws. This also means you will not switch if you are the trail and you call a shooting foul.

This may have been discussed already but I couldn't find it so I apologize if this has already been brought up.

Can someone please confirm? Mr. Bob Jenkins?


Thank you.

Just for clarification...you go table side, not at the table. You are still responsible for the 10 second count, watching the free thrower, the flight of the ball, and the 2nd & 3rd player on the opposite lane line, among other things..

It is going to be a season where we are going to have to be great communicators with coaches.

Why? Has the CO state association decided not to follow the new mechanic or are you saying that you don't have to communicate with the coaches in that state?

If CO decided to pass on this, good for them. I wish WI would do the same.

I've heard that IAABO, with their own mechanics, will not follow the new NFHS free throw mechanics. Could someone confirm that?

Just means that we have to get a good call on the shooting fouls or there will be an earful from the coach.

I saw someone say that on the forum not long after the change was announced. I can't find the post.

Not in the 2nd half.

But if a coach tries to give me an earful, the opponent will be shooting two more and getting the ball at the division line.

This has been what I've been told, although I haven't seen it from official sources.

It doesn't change how we call the game at all. Being five feet from the coach doesn't mean he gets away with anymore than if we were opposite the court.

Yeah, save all those "not good calls" for non-shooting fouls! (sarc)

You're going to get an earful from some coaches no matter how good the calls are.
