Question

Couple of years ago Basketball Australia (our governing body) sent out an instruction that all referees were to use a two handed toss, and not to have the whistle in their mouths.

On a tangent - since the introduction of the possession arrow, I have noticed many more referees having to re-toss the ball due to their error. Maybe this is because we now only do one jump ball per game, so it is a skill that is being lost.....any thoughts?
