This works for situations where there will be a free-throw…the Trail is at the 28’ line, not half-court

What if the ball is to be taken out of bounds? Lead goes to ball side which forces Center back to Trail.

Miscellaneous Notes…

Opposite is responsible for last second shot

T and/or C are responsible for bringing in substitutes…(all of us are ultimately responsible)

When the ball is in your primary…take the drive all the way to the basket

Lead officals must learn to trust their Center official on weak side plays

“Active Lead…Strong Center and Trail”

Miscellaneous Notes…

You can’t be a ball watcher and be an effective 3-person official

Double whistles are good…Who gets the call? Primary!

Position of the Trail during Free Throws? 28 ft. line

Where is the “C” during a press??? Freeze after a rebound/made basket to see if

there if there is a press or trap. Think: “Center stay put”
