Had this on the other night..A6 is sent by coach to be substitute for A1...A6 goes to table [very long table maybe 15-18 feet long with scorer in the middle and not much room between court and face of table] I am T. Ball goes OOB under basket along endline, I see A6 at end of table nearest to his coach...I whistle and beckon A6 into game...we get ready to inbound ball...L hands ball to B1 to inbound and table informs me that A6 did not report in..
I gave A6 a "T" for being an illegal substitute...
When I beckoned A6 in I had not waited for table to buzz horn..many times table forgets to buzz..so if we see a sub at the table we just wave him in at the appropriate time...
Should I have waited until table buzzed? Any other options?
Comments appreciated.
