I'm hoping in my first season I can cover all the major calls/situations. Here is the breakdown so far:
* 1 direct T on a coach.
* 2 other team Ts.
* 1 double foul.
* Several player control fouls. Boy, those are fun.
* 2 intentional fouls so far.
* Warning for breaking the plane by defensive player on inbound (no T for it yet though).
* FT violations (but none on the shooter yet).
* 1 good funny comment to an assistant coach that made him laugh and sit down*
* Only 1 foul on a rebound so far, which tells me I need to do a better job when trail of stepping down and watching rebounding action since god knows there have to have been more than 1 foul during a rebound (though most of my games have been girls JV).
* I've been the R. Tossed ball, checked books, talked to Cs and coaches.
* Throw in violation where not touched by player on floor, gave ball to opponent at throw in spot (not so much a unique call, but I was happy I got the ball location right for the throw in).
* several player DQs, though my first time I didnt do things in the right order.
* No multiple fouls yet.
* No fouls on a 3 point try yet.
* No flagrant personals or Ts.
* No ejection of a player or coach (though I came close on a player, but I changed my mind as I put my fist up and made it an intentional rather than a flagrant).
* No spot throw in violations yet for moving from spot.
So that is how it stands so far after 20 games in my first season.
Man, this is a lot of fun

*funny comment: in a girls JV game the assistant was standing up and coaching while the head coach was just a bump on a log. I asked my partner (R) at a TO about that. He said everyone knows the assistant is the coach and the head coach just took the job for the money and doesnt know jack about coaching. He told me to let it go. "I said OK, you are the R and I'm a newbie." Personally, I didnt like that but I went with my R. So I am lead table side in the assistant coach's front court and he is riding me on a call I made last possession saying "that was a bad call." While transitioning to new trail (no press, slow action) I say to the assistant "no, a bad call would be T'ing you for being up and talking to me, my call was a good call." He laughed and sat down.

Clark you forgot the "MONEY" calls:
Pushoff by offense on a fronting player during the entry pass.
The backside hold by the defender on an entry pass.
The subtile push in the back on a high entry pass that keeps the post from catching the ball.
Offball grabs and chucks on cutters.
Player runs through or throws the screener.
The inside arm grab and pin.
And the MONEY of all money calls, an illegal screen with the ball in your primary.
