Pick A Line, Any Line ???
 

Here in our little corner of Connecticut, we have three schools of thought on this.

Old timers use the old NFHS mechanics. The lead has the sideline all the way back to the far endline.

Brand new officials are taught by the training committee that the lead has the sideline back as far as the division line. The trail has all the lines in the backcourt, including the far sideline in the backcourt.

Others go with an "option" in the IAABO manual. The lead has the sideline back to the foul line extended. The trail has the rest of that far sideline.

I just wish that we could come up with one mechanic and stick to it. When I make such a suggestion to those in charge, I'm always told the same thing, "Pregame it".

Question: For those of you who use the second, or third, option (above) does it change whether, or not, you're in a half court set, or in transition?
