What do you guys suggest I can do to help fix this problem. I have look in the rule books for proper mechanic or procedure of what to do after blowing a whistle on a foul call. Unfortunately, I can not find any section that teaches the proper procedure after blowing whistle on a foul call for both shooting and non-shooting.

So my question is what should we do after the whistle is blown for a foul call (shooting & non-shooting)?
I dont have my officials manual at the moment, but I believe that there is a procedure something along the lines of:

Whistle, state the foul, state the consequence, state the restart.

In other words, color, #, foul, consequence - at the spot. If you communicate properly you and your partner(s) should know what happens next.

For example - at the spot - red, 32, hold, 55 white shoots 2 ....

I try to make eye contact with my partner while stating this. No problems.
