This is one mechanic that I refuse to follow. I agree that it is silly. I figure that if I can hear the horn, so can the teams. You will be amazed how much their hearing improves after you put the ball in play immediately following the second horn!
FYI, this first horn mechanic was only put in a couple of years ago. I can't fathom why. Must be because the rules are written by a bunch of coaches and ADs.
PS Why in the hell do you work a 4 game set!?
