Well, in high school, I try to communicate on-ball to a partner who is ball-watching, and shouldn't be looking in my area. I think it's good to maintain periodic eye contact, and when I glance at a partner who's watching the ball that's clearly in my area I'll try to gesture or hint that I've got the ball and he (usually a "he") needs to watch off-ball. I also appreciate it if I glance at a partner who's concentrating (and signalling) on-ball, because it reminds me to practice what I preach.
