Captains meeting Officials positions.

Just curious. What are the positions of the three officials during the meeting with team captains at center court? Couldn't find anything in the officials manual.

R is table side of the players.
U1 and U2 are opposite the table.
All three are facing the players.

In most places, it doesn't really matter.

We have R facing table while U1/U2 are near table looking out towards the court to keep watch on players warming up.

It varies here.

When I'm the R, I put my back to the table, tableside. That way when I'm done, I only have to turn around and I'm a few steps from the table. U1/U2 merely have to back out to their usual positions.

NFHS Official's Manual does not say ... IAABO manual, page 101, says R faces table and U1/U2 backs to the table.

IAABO doesn't have us at center court, it has us halfway between the jump ball circle, and the table.

I don't think there is a specified position.

We just stand wherever we end up but with one on each side.

I'm not sure there really needs to be a specified mechanic here for anyone but the most AR.

I was taught this way too, but, for a different reason - R starts the game from across from the table, so he also faces the table when doing the Captain's Meeting. So, that's how I do it.

Rationale ok? Who knows.

mandatory?

Is the captains' meeting mandatory by rule? Can you "verify" the legal, worn properly, sporting behavior in some other manner than the captains' meeting?

It's mandatory here. I do not verify legal equipment there, it's quick.

Have a good game, fellas."

(Or "players" if they're ladies.)

Adam,

We do it around here, too. But, is it mandated by rule (FED)

R's position is firmly and staunchly Conservative
U1's position is quarterback.
Us'2 position is lotus.
