I know during 3A/4A Regionals, we were required to have the player foul counts & team foul counts on the boards, as well as player points & who was currently in the game.

The same can be said for the JUCO tournament that is coming up where I am currently scheduled to work scoreboard/timer.

In cases like that, either the timer will be paying close attention or the timer & scorer will be in constant communication.

"Required" by whom? Not the rules. If the venue or sactioning body requires it, it's still not my concern. Again, if the timer wants to (or is required to) put the information up on the board, it's up to him to pay attention. I'm not waiting for him and I won't even know if he got the information.
