I think this is my biggest challenge. When I first call the "T". I blow, make the "T" signal with my hands, I explain to the table what has happened, then go to my partner/s that when my adrenaline kicks in. ( about 5 seconds ) I hate that feeling. i want to remain calm, but it's hard. JMO.

I know we should move away from the coach, but I don't have a problem explaining why I called the "T" last week a coach asked and I explained and my partners moved me away. I understood what they we doing. He was chirping for the start and I had given him the stop sign and he continued. I wasn't going to listen to it.
