If you are in a closed down position you will not have far to go.

That being said I would not move just because the ball is on the other side of the lane. If the ball is being kicked back and forth up top I might not move at all except for being in the closed down position. What will make me rotate is what the other players are doing. If players are setting up in the post or if it is clear the ball is coming back to where I am, I might not move at all. The objective is to have two officials on the side of the ball, but that is not always practical. I am not going to go away from players just to be on the side of the ball when I do not have ball coverage on the other side of the lane.

Peace
