4. Report to the table (again look really cool, everyones watching, but still be unemotional)
5. Go opposite, get away from the coach, no good can come of you staying, and if a 2nd T needs to be given the perception is much better if it comes from the "innocent" party.
Trust me, I've called plenty of T's, this is one I know how to handle! I ejected a coach tonight in fact.

#2 is the most important part. NEVER neglect this step. If you're feeling emotional, or something frazzling just happened, this step also gives you a few seconds to calm down and pull yourself together.
Also, don't call the T on the coach if the opponent has a breaking play. Do call it right away if that T coach's players have a breaking play.
