3-Person Mechanics
• Info on web site
• Print and use in Doc Hurley pre-game
IAABO Basic Foundation
One Rule-One Interpretation
• Based on the NFHS Rule & Case books
One Mechanic-One Signal
• Based on the IAABO Officials Manual & NFHS
New “closely guarded” added this year
Mechanics versus Signals
• Mechanics are “methods and procedures”
designed to put you in the right place
• Signals provide information
13
Essentials of Good Mechanics
Know what the book says to do and what it
means...but remember, it’s a guide (a good
one)...go where you have to go to officiate the
game...
Terminology...some basics
•
•
•
•
•
Trail Position
Lead Position
Primary Coverage Area (PCA)
Close Down
Work the Arc
14
PCA...what is it?
Primary Coverage Area - “new” in the past 10
years...
15
16
PCA
If you don’t know your PCA’s...you can’t cover
the court effectively...
How to ensure agreement
• Read the book...learn the material...talk-share...
• Have an in-depth pre-game...get on same page!
17
PCAs
• Working the arc...Ball crosses the basket line
• Close down...As Trail--on shot...as Lead-as ball
approaches basket line
• A, B, C & Ball side...Start position, ball near basket
line, ball settled with post play
18
19
20
Warm Up Coverage
Responsibilities
Referee watches the visiting team, Umpire
watches the home team.
Check court and equipment...be alert early!
Watch players movements e.g. lay-up drills
(watch pivot foot), post moves, 3-point
shooters
21
22
Scorers & Timers Meeting
Be professional and friendly
Enlist their support...we’re in this together
Give instructions that will help the game e.g.
• Scorer - make eye contact with reporting
official...no eye contact, no report...
• Timer - LONG horn on 15 sec. warning horn
• Subs must have shirts in before entering
• Hold subs when a foul is being reported
23
Starting the Game: Jump Ball
Proper starting positions
Player movements - Know what is allowed.
Review Rule 6-3.
Good toss
• New rule: Referee may designate tosser
• Watch for “stealing” the toss
Umpire’s movement
• Either direction for proper coverage
24
Stoppages in Play
Violations result in throw-ins:
• Line responsibilities
Lead...end line and nearest sideline up to division
line...have discussion about “above FT line”
• don’t ball watch above the FT line
Trail...nearest sideline, division line, all backcourt
• Throw-ins
Boxing in
25
26
Throw-ins
Bounce vs. Hand?
• As Trail...bounce to thrower
• As Lead...hand to thrower
Exception...throw-in below FT line on Lead’s sideline
27
Foul Mechanics...at the spot
Specific procedures for what to do and say
Work at getting better
Two procedures to encourage:
• Verbalize who committed the foul e.g. “white 22”
before leaving the area
• Verbalize who is shooting e.g. “red 12 is shooting”
before leaving the area
28
Foul Mechanics...at the spot
Two procedures to discourage:
• “Hit and run” officiating... Blow the whistle and
immediately leave the area!
• Hand in air with two fingers for number of shots
more concerned with number of shots rather than who
is shooting
Anyone in the building can tell you the number of
shots...only the person making the call may know who
is shooting
29
Foul Mechanics...at the spot...by
the book...
STRONG whistle, arm straight up, fist clenched
STOP, state color and number of fouler
Give preliminary signal for “type” of foul
If try for goal involved, count or cancel ASAP
• If uncertain...check with partner... “ball went in”
Verbally inform the free thrower or indicate
throw-in spot
Leave the area by going around the players
30
Reporting the Foul
Hustle to the reporting area
STOP, establish eye contact (pre-game)
If try for goal was involved, count or cancel
State color and number of the player who
fouled
31
32
Reporting the Foul
 Indicate the type of foul...proper signals
Indicate the number of free throws, if any
Handle any table related issues e.g.
substitutes, time outs, etc
If a player disqualification is involved...
• Have non-calling official initiate that process:
Notify the coach
Inform timer to start clock (20 seconds this year)
Notify the player
 Remember to “switch” on ALL fouls except ???
33
Free Throw Coverage
Proper position:
• Trail...25-28’...near sideline...close down on
release
• Lead...Deep and wide (halfway to 3-point line)
PCA:
• Trail...Free thrower, top two spaces on farther line
and flight of the ball
• Lead...Farther lane line and first space on nearer
lane line
34
35
Free Throw Responsibilities
Know the book...Be ALERT
•
•
•
•
•
Have the RIGHT shooter at the RIGHT basket
Communicate the number of throws to be taken
Ensure the players are lined up properly
Be aware of potential substitutes
Bounce the ball, count, chop in time, etc as
required
• OFFICIATE the play i.e. watch for violations,
players entering early, fouls, etc (NFHS POE)
36
Timeout Procedures
 Before granting a timeout, ensure it is legal to grant
one...be patient...when in doubt, DON’T
 Remember - only the Head Coach can call timeout
and you must be sure he/she is requesting.
 Do not “bump and run”...if you grant it, you report it
 Determine 30 or 60 second from coach on way to
reporting area...if no signal given...it’s a 60
fo37
Timeout Procedures
Provide all information to the scorer:
• State color and number of player who requested
timeout and visually signal the number...OR...
• State that the coach requested the timeout...
visually indicate “C” for coach
Ensure both teams are in their respective
bench areas
Signal the timer to start the clock
38
Timeout Procedures
After completing report...go to appropriate
spot: (Which way do I go???)
1.

44
“Other”
3-point shot...coverage, discuss in pregame
• Do both officials signal a 3-point attempt?
• If a 3-point try is successful...who signals?
Answer
• On attempt... “covering” official signals
One arm extended at head level, 3 fingers extended
• If made: official signals successful try =
touchdown. If Lead signals, Trail mirrors...Lead
does not mirror signal of Trail
45
End of the Half/Game Procedures

Pre-Game Discussion
•
•
•
•
•
Starts when assignment is made
Partner, teams
Travel arrangements – before and after game
Discussion during preliminary game
Discussion while getting dressed – use of IAABO pregame conference card or personal notes as guide
• Discussion during half-time
• Discussion after game
PRE-GAME TIPS
• TEAMWORK
• JUDGEMENT
• GAME MANAGEMENT
PRE-GAME TIPS
TEAMWORK
• When to get captains and coaches.
• Let’s put the ball in play where it goes out of bounds or spot
of foul. No Favors!
• Good Court Coverage (Primary Coverage Area Peter Webb,
ME). Good looks off the ball. Not too many double whistles.
Understand each other’s area. Discuss PCA for fouls,
violations, out of bounds, throw-ins. Live it during the game.
• Let’s get it right. Come together to change the call if needed.
Both of us can do this.
PRE-GAME TIPS
TEAMWORK (cont)
• Substitutions: slow, beckon (one), count, eye-contact.
• Slow down the pace of the game when we need to…especially on throwins, substitutions, rough part of game, 4th quarter.
• “composure allows us to concentrate better” Ray McClure, Georgia.
• Good 4th quarter officiating… TO’s, importance of each call, foul shooter,
etc.
• Let’s get through the “rough spots” Every game has them. Sometimes
we create them.
• One voice to clarify most situations with table, coaches, captains.
PRE-GAME TIPS
GOOD JUDGEMENT
• Good preventive officiating, Good game talk. “Don’t hold,
don’t reach, get out, hold your spot, etc”
• Let’s not reward an out of control player. A travel or no call
instead of being fouled.
• Be consistent with calls. Good mirror calls at both
ends….Calls and no calls.
• Protect the shooter.
• Trust our no calls. “If you think he did, he didn’t” Ray
McClure
• Long 2 or 3 point shots….stay with the shooter to determine
foul or no foul.
PRE-GAME TIPS
GAME MANAGEMENT
• Let’s remember who the captains are and use them (remind
each other during introductions).
• Let’s be aware of the score, fouls, and the best player.
• We should comment on the game’s 2 coaches: Who are
they, their personality, styles, how to manage
them/communicate with them.
• Let’s be aware of the game they give us and ref it
accordingly.
• Let’s talk and adjust at halftime.
• To the umpire: What would you like to go over?
PRE-GAME QUOTES
• “A good pre-game shows we care about tonight’s
game”. pp
• 600,000 HS boys and girls play basketball: what we
do is good “civic service” pw
• “you don’t have to be sick to get better” OR “none
of us are there yet” pw
• “apply the rule…players will adjust” pw
• “to make advancement, CT officials should move
south” rm
PRE-GAME QUOTES
• “advantage/disadvantage only on contact. Not on
violations”. rm
• “have a patient whistle” RM “withhold the
whistle a fraction of a second longer” jmc
• “Take your time… no rush” ts
• What gives you goose bumps? PW
• Officiating a great game with a partner on the same
page and in sync with each other. mji

Focus
Be Mentally Prepared
Have fun
“Take pride in what you do.. It does matter”
Quote
• I love 2 point league games, 20 point scrimmages,
league and state tournament games, 3rd grade girls
CYO games. Love 'em all the same. Treat 'em all the
same. Always on time. Always prepare. Always have
fun. Always try to get 'em all right. That prep, that
energy, that focus - is totally in your control - and you
can't say that about everything in life - and I love
everything about all of it.
