That's fine Chuck, do what works for you. My only point was that I don't think anyone could ever fault you for doing the mechanics by the book. I can think of times when leaving out the preliminary signal could lead to confusion.

Z,

You can't go wrong following the book.

I think you can note that most college officials will have college mechanics in their bags when they hit the high school floor.

Many high school officials will not even think about Section 230.b,c,d,e,h.

They tell us to speed up these games, and eliminating some redundancies is one of our ways to decrease dead ball time.

Chuck doesn't even stop to clear a net!
Let's go!!! Ball in!!

Personally, I may give a preliminary signal 30-40% of the time.
