I've always wanted to ask (and yes, I know how this is going to sound) -- how long *is* your lanyard? I mean, I couldn't hit my whistle without some serious effort.

Seriously, though, another rule I saw broken in a state championship game. Blow your whistle before you step into the circle for the jump and leave it out of your mouth. Otherwise, you'll take an elbow someday and the whistle can do damage to teeth, etc.

Also, before the game, at halftime, after the game, either remove the whistle and put it in a pocket or tuck it in the shirt -- you don't want something for an irate moron to grab as you're leaving or entering the court.
