Question: Would you use a electronic whistle? If it fit well on your hand and wrist and was not cumbersome.
A speaker disposed on the backhand side of the unit, and a momentary switch on the lower palm area on the front of the unit. To "blow whistle" you would simply close hand and press switch with fingertips.
This would free hands and mouth. Be much cleaner and sanitary. No lanyard around neck and no fumbling around to sound whistle. Would not have to rely on the breath of winded official.
Would you use one? TIA

There really is no way to tell how many times I blow a whistle per game. It depends on the violations, fouls, timouts, and any other reason that I have to blow the play dead (like last night I had a kid go screaming across the gym floor).
As far as an electronic whistle, I would be hesitant to use anything electronic with everything that can go wrong.
