When I went to my first training sessions a few yrs back, I never realized I had the bad habit of reporting by saying "I've got" before reporting fouls. "I've got blue, 4-2, with a hold." I was told to slow down, and as is stated report - color, number, and give a signal. The less said the less room for error......good advice given to me by a senior official. Every now and then, early in the yr I do catch myself however....that's why I practice and get my scrimmages in.
