1) What side of the shooter do I stand? Even with Freethrow line Extended?

2) What players do I watch for possible violations?

3) Do I extended my arm up before the last of 2 shots or 1 and 1? Then tomahawk to start clock.

Thanks,

TR

1)Table-side for NFHS 2-man. You should be roughly 6 strides from the nearest lane-line and 1-3 strides above.

2) You have shooter, the player in the top lane space nearest you and the top 2 spaces opposite you.

3)I raise my arm on all shots once the shooter releases the shot.

Billy Mac's illustration disagrees.

Billy's is probably IAABO, which does not do table-side for two-man on FTs.

Rule reference?

Sorry, the Trail has the top 2 opposite and shooter. It might be easier for the T to see the top space nearest violate as if that violation occurs(though rarely called) the player is usually moving towards the shooter.

Oddly enough, it doesnt give any mention on who has the 3 players moving about behind the 3-pt arc.

Trail has the 3+ players behind the free throw, but they are usually not responsible for FT violations.

Though of course I called such a violation last night...

It happens occasionally, like once a year. Usually its a kid wandering around and goes below the free throw line or it talking to his/hercoach (if you werent paying attention to tell them to move) below the line. Think I have only called a kid once for breaking the arc in a HS game.

You coach them in this situation?

If I see a player below the free throw line extended before a free throw, I'll tell him to back up. Even while the ball is at the disposal of the player, if a player wanders and wants to have a word with the coach but in doing so will be below the free throw line extended, I'll remind the coach about it since I'm right there.

If its before the ball is given to the thrower, get 'em up. If not, well too bad and here comes the violation/delayed violation.

Not all states have adopted this mechanic change - some still have the trail opposite side to the table
