Clean mechanics for a pre-game dunk
Recently, I have seen a couple of pre-game dunks (or grasping of the rim) in some boys JV games I was observing.
In one...an official of the crew immediately blew his whistle and advised the player and Coach of the infraction. In another...the officials got together and discussed the infraction...at the coaches meetings (2 min. prior to the game) the crew informed the Coach of the infraction and the penalty that would be imposed. Maybe these sitch's will help newer officials in handling pre-game dunks. There is a certain procedure to use...what is it? 10.3.4 Sit C

You can do this without the whistle. I've seen it done both ways as well. I called it once in a summer league (the players were told twice to knock it off) and I used my whistle so that everyone knew what was going on. In a regular season game, I can see the advantage of just telling the coaches and reporting to the bench.

The case play you cited lays down the procedure that should be followed. |

Had this situation in my first BV game this season. My partner (R) saw it . Told me about. When the kid came near us R called the kid over and asked for his number. I recited to my partner how we were going start the game and the loss of the coach's box. My partner then walked over to the offending coach and laid it all out to him then my partner returned to his pre-game position.
During the coach's meeting we informed the opposition coach that his squad would be getting 2 free throws and the ball to start the game. After the coaches' meetings we went to the table and my partner instructed the official scorekeeper what to annotate in the book and I instructed the visitor's scorekeeper. After the introductions and national anthem I walked the ball to the appropriate free throw lane, gave a subdued toot on the whistle, formed the T sign with my hands, visually indicated 2 shots, and bounced the ball to the shooter.

I like ArmyMan's post. No need to make a big scene about it. Tell the coach and the offending player. Assess the penalty to start the game and move on.
Did the officials blow their whistle when they entered the gym to let the players know they were present?? |

I always use my whistle when giving pregame warnings. The reason is simply so no player can come afterwards
"why did you T me" "you hanged on the ring" "but you didn't warn me" then you simply end up giving more T's then you need. I don't know if there is an official FIBA mechanic on this though
