Practicing Two-Hand Reporting

[SC Official]

I show both hands simultaneously. Some people teach showing one after the other, and it can be helpful for starting out to do it that way, but it doesn't really matter.

I'll be blunt, I'm not really sure why people would even have it in their minds to show the number so that it's read backwards from the scorer's perspective. The scorer is the one recording the foul, so common sense would dictate that (s)he would need to be able to read it from left to right.

We have people struggling to do this? If you knew how to report with one hand, I am not sure why adding a second hand is that hard. BTW, been doing this in off season games for years.

I think we try to make things (mechanics, etc.) harder than they need to be.

. . . out of the NFHS building recently. Could this be what new rule 2-9-1 and its associated mechanics will look like?

Doesn't say anything about stopping in the reporting area. If this is what gets printed in the manual, would that imply that walk-and-talk will be acceptable?

Single digit number, i.e., four, right hand?

I don't think it matters. Just don't signal 0-4 with two hands.

But then that wouldn't be "two hand reporting".

Is this from the NFHS? Is there somewhere it can be found online, and copied and pasted? I would like to share it with my local interpreter.

Can't find it anywhere on their site, hence "bootlegged." Looks legit. Of course, it could have been sent out by Julian Assange.

It's gotta be the Russians.

Doesn't say anything special about how to report 1 and 1 either, says report free throws in one hand. Means we can now use the "hook 'em horns" like the NBA! No more of the dumb old signal. Boom.

Looks like a few things are not clear. Do we stop and report anymore?

Nice catch. Can we trust the authenticity of this link?

In baseball/softball the count is given with the first number (BALLS) on the left hand and the second number (STRIKES) on the right hand. So I can see the confusion for those who work other sports.
