The Lead Must do the following on these plays:
1. Officiate 70% defense and 30% offense.
2. Pick up the secondary defender as quick as possible.
3. Find the secondary defender that can contest the play, if the primary defender is “beaten”.
The lead official should officiate the primary and secondary defenders on block/charge plays which occur below the free throw line extended. The lead should have these plays when they originate on the strong-side or down the middle of the floor. The center official will officiate 1vs 1 match-ups to the basket on weak side drives. On this scenario , the Lead must officiate the secondary defender.
