Had a simple question, but has rather great implications. For HS mechs, already understanding that proper reporting order is

Color
Number
Foul
Ball
I do not know what you mean by "Ball." I know that after you report the foul, you need to tell everyone what we are going to do next. Either you point to the spot where the ball will be put at or you let everyone know the FT shooting situation.

Personally, I like the full number "34" instead of "3-4." Anyhow, I know its pretty petty, but we all know it's the petty things that move us up.

Any thoughts?
Thanks.
This is an area or evaluator thing. It does not matter. There are people on all sides of that debate. Do what you feel comfortable with until someone tells you to do something different. I personally say "three-four," because I feel it is less confusing to the scorekeeper and slows me down. I have never had anyone tell me to do it the other way, even though some evaluators specifically teach to call out the actual number.

Peace
