Who's Possession

[Peter Devana]

I originally had trouble with the arrow like most people. I tried to focus etc but found that took away from my game focus which was not good. I finally developed a communication procedure which solved the problem. Prior to putting the ball into play when an arrow change could be made I now always get the minor officials attention, remind him/her to be ready to change the arrow make my signal to my partner(s) that the balls going into play -then give the ball to the throw-in person. When the ball is successfully inbounded I then look and point to the minor official as they change the arrow. Of course during the pre-game with the minor official the rules re: the arrow change must always be reviewed- especially with the rookies. This procedure really works for me.
