Hmmm, might be because you're not giving the preliminary
indications properly at the foul spot? Do you verbalize
the color and number of the fouler, point the ball direction
and throw-in spot? Do you do this clearly & slowly?
Well, I think sometimes this is a problem for me, but I've been doing better on it this season. These younger kids, and their coaches, do not always pay attention, though and sometimes the best mechanics in the world don't get through. I think a lot of times the players don't know their own numbers, so when I say it, it doesn't sink in. Also, in a noisy gym shouting the color doesn't always get through. I know there are times when I can't understand what my partner is saying...
