Personally, I think it looks better and speeds things up a bit, but I have no problem with reporting "the old fashioned way".  |
Here it's exactly the opposite. Did a JV game on Thursday, was observed by our association's clinician, and his first post-game comment to me was "you need to get to the foul reporting area AND STOP before you report the foul".
He (the clinician) says that 90% of his comments to officials are about slowing down and taking your time with reporting.
I don't do the two-handed reporting because I'm not coordinated enough to do it.
