Where do the referees stand?

Q: Where do the referees stand?

The referee listed first in the programme starts on the same side as the officials' table. If there's no ball-release device, one referee releases the ball at halfway and then takes up position. During play Stay on the same side you started the period on, but move freely along that side to get the best view. At the start of the second and fourth periods (when teams don't change ends), the referees swap sides and 6 m lines. During stoppages and intervals, referees may move anywhere in the venue. With only one referee (allowed at non-World Aquatics events with two assistant referees), the referee works from the officials' table side, with the assistant referees on the opposite side.
