Do you just verbalize it to the table and then to the coaches individually, or do you actually signal the T somewhere, like in front of the table or do you do so from the foul reporting area. Do you call the T right when the violation happens, or wait until the pre-game clock runs down to zero and then call it?

I had a kid hang on the rim in pre-game Saturday night. I escorted him to his coach and made him explain why we would be starting with a T. Then, I (we) made sure the books had it right and knew when and how to set the arrow, etc., and told the opposing coach that his team would start with FTs.
The announcer announced, "We're starting the game with FTs due to a technical foul on xxxx team during the pre-game."
On we went.
