My first year using pro rules, I had the toughest time recognizing defensive 3 seconds & getting the switches down.
My biggest challenges today are learning to do the opposite of everything I've been taught:
HS - Jog around players to report the foul
Pro - Walk right down the lane to report the foul
HS - Visible b/c counts
Pro - Use 16 sec on the shot clock as a reference
HS - Run/jog everywhere you could walk to
Pro - "Move with a purpose... I know what you're trying to show us, but we don't run in the league" - Clinician
Now that the summer is over & I don't have any more opportunities to use pro mechanics, the things I'm having trouble reverting back to are:
- Stop clock signal on OOB
- Hand up prior to chopping in time
- No loose ball foul mechanic
- Using closely guarded
- 1 hand reporting / no walkie talkie
- Using a lanyard
All in all, I love using the pro rule set, floor mechanics & their signals are awesome!!
