Lightbulb Advice from a D1 Official.

If you are into the game, you should not need to keep it anywhere but in your head. You should be able to remember this just like other factors you remember in the game, despite what the table has. And the table will make mistakes. So something that I have always done when one of my mentors at the D1 level told me, "keep it on the floor." Meaning that you as an official should know what the status of the AP is during the game yourself. Using whistles to determine this or using a rubberband looks sloppy. Maybe unless you are doing a 4th grade girls game (or any girl's game) you might have more of a problem with this. But usually Boy's games do not have the amount of AP situations, it is not that hard to figure out.

Peace
