This is a bit off subject but related. I've seen it done both ways and have found myself at times doing to both ways. Team A has a player with #3 and one with #33. 3 gets the foul. When you report it do you say and signal, "Gold 3" or say and signal "Gold 03?" People at the table sometimes forget to pay attention and get confused about how many threes they heard.

This is why you should verbalize #33 as "thirty-three" rather than as "three-three."

Especially when dealing with any number involving the digits one or two.

Which becomes worse if you have free throws.
