Curious, if you count 6 on a team before inbounding ball, do you tell the coach he has too many, or do you just blow the whistle as soon as the ball is inbounded? Isn't it the coach's responibility to know how many players he has on the floor?

I just say "somebody didn't leave...." and usually the other two guys I'm working with recognize it before I do.

If I'm the guy brining in the subs I tell my self "i got 2 on from white - and 2 on from blue"......"and theres my 2 off for white, ad 2 off for blue" then i drop my hand and let my co's know we're ready.

of course we pregrame the "ready" part. In my Wednesday game we agreed we wouldn't drop the hand until we were really ready

Now someone is going to make a shrimp joke and Scrappy will get all crabby. (For those who don't know Scrapper, that's an in-tide joke).

I have an ocean to just close the thread now, but that would be shellfish of me. So, I'll leave it open, just for the halibut.
