For a real held ball or a real jump ball, we go straight to the jump/held ball signal, skipping the open hand (for out of bounds) signal, and then either use the alternating possession arrow, or have a real jump ball.
You're likely not going straight to the held ball signal. Most cases you are stopping clock, conferring with partner(s), then signaling held ball. Also likely needing to explain things to the table and coaches ,put ball back in play and make sure the arrow gets switched after the throw-in ends.
