Work with anyone who calls it and they don't want a double whistle. FED wants lots of double whistles especially near the boarders of your area.

Huh. I've been to three college level camps this summer and haven't heard that, Tim. Obviously, I'm not trying to belittle your experiences, but I don't think anyone ever said to me that you definitely should
not have double whistles. What they told us is that if you have a whistle outside your primary, it should be late. You should never have the first whistle if the double whistle is outside your area. Let the primary official have first crack at it. If you think they didn't get a look,
then crack the whistle. By that time, maybe the primary has re-processed the play and blown also, but the secondary coverage official should have a very slow whistle out of his/her primary. That was what I got from camp, anyway.

Windows. At camp they defined the L as having three windows.
Window 1 is at the lane line, window 2 is halfway to the 3 point and window 3 is at the 3 point line

Gotcha. We heard the A-B-C terminology. Start at A and mirror the ball. Close down to B when the ball starts to swing. Rotate to C. We didn't get a "window" at the 3-point line, but were told that if the ball goes wide, then go wide. So we'll end up at that window anyway. It just didn't get its own number
Tim, I'm curious if you attended camps for women's mechanics? Maybe this would explain a little of the terminology/philosophy differences.
