I played from 4th grade through hs and was never taught to constantly yell "ball, ball ball!" for the whole time that somebody had the ball...we were told to yell "ball" once when the player we were defending received the ball so everyone knew we were on the ball...although we were taught to yell "UP UP UP UP" once a dribble was picked up....but to yell something CONSTANTLY, no we were never taught that...it's not like this is a universally accepted method of teaching defense, I'm not all that suprised if OP had never seen it....
