I also think it would be good procedure to put the bonus lights on after the 6th foul and the ball has been inbounded so again a quick glance and everyone in the gym will know the procedure for the 7th foul.

I see your point, DJ, but I think this would be more confusing. If the foul count says 6, but the bonus light is shining, people would think there had been an error. The best thing is to do what Rich suggests and communicate with your partner that THE NEXT foul will be the bonus.

What I'm trying to work on this year, is keeping track of EVERYTHING. As soon as an AP ball is passed inbounds, check the arrow. When I chop in the clock, be sure it's running. Keep close track of the score. Check the board after every foul. I don't feel I need to REMEMBER everything, just see to it that the board is changed for each item. It's tricky!! but it sure cuts down on problems.
