In my high school game, this uniform color is always blue.

... and yellow (rare) is always gold and orange is always red.

When in Rome ... do what your assigners and trainers want you to do.

There are some folks who are color blind and can't differentiate all those shades. I know red, white, green, blue, black, gold. Those are the only colors I've ever reported.

Locally we're trained (for over forty years) to use only one syllable colors. To do otherwise might mean a slight "ding" on one's evaluation and a possible slight delay up the ladder.

I was trained the same way: one syllable colors. Now, since my deep dark officiating secret is that I officiated boys' and girls' H.S. soccer: soccer uses the actual color. Evidently soccer officials are smarter that basketball officials, LOL!
