Remember in this play who was ON BALL- The New Lead going into transition was... He is on top of the play--- If the ball goes OOB I would expect him to make the call--- Even if it were my line a the new T I am not making that call from 40-80 ft away when L is down the floor and watching the play that I might have missed...

The mechanics book is a good guide but this is no different than in a two man game when ball goes OOB above FT line extended that Trail should have theOOB call on Leads sideline ---

Same as if you are working strongside ( and both officials on same side of floor) and ball skip passes away from lead and goes OOB-- Trail has first shot at the call on opposite sideline because has best look

Kelvin,
Did you just change the play?
I'm lost, ... yet that should be familiar territory for me by now.

99% of the officials manual is written with the understanding that the play has settled into the frontcourt or the ball is in the backcourt (during a fullcourt press or a throw-in). Very little of it discusses transition. There are some plays, but I would like to see the NFHS dedicate an entire chapter in the next manual to transition coverage. Perhaps the CCA manual does a better job of this. I haven't read it so I don't know.

To handle this problem, one of my pre-game comments is usually, "Help each other in transition."
