And how many awards have you been given?? If one of the better/best in the area, you should be getting some accolades

I'm a bit surprised about hearing that about the AP since 2-11-7 says: "Record the jump balls for the alternating-possession procedure & be responsible for the possession arrow."
Though that's great to hear that's a POE for you next year as well.
I've heard of an announcer keeping track of fouls on a separate sheet, but not a timer.
My reasoning for stating earlier that eye contact should be made to both the scorer & timer, is that almost all gyms have the scoreboard set up that track either player fouls, team fouls or both, as well as having the bonus signal on the scoreboard. So the foul counts will be posted on the board as well, depending on how confident the timer is in posting that information.
It's few & far between that have the bonus indicators located on the scorers' table. Unless the table is one on those with a scoreboard built in or a table design like we have here. So generally the officials are using the scoreboard for information other than just the time left, even though that's the only official information.
