It is common practice right frank? because every game I've worked in the last several years, the R's have hit the whistle just enough to let the boys know we were there, stop the dunking.
No malice intended. I had never seen it done so I wanted to be sure it was correct and I could not find it in the book. We are taught to listen to experienced officials and then followup with rules reference. If that is what our chapter has asked us to do; that is what we will do. Apparently Dallas also follows this recommendation. Since it is my first year, I dont think this will be much of a problem in the games I will be calling.... except for that female 6-4 Soph from Nimitz.... but I am not calling their games
