Intentional foul mechanic
I'm sure I screwed this up, so time to get the mechanics right ...
A1 driving to the hoop, beats his man B1 by more than a step. B1 grabs him from behind as he goes in the air for the layup with one hand on each hip. I stop the clock with fist, then make the initial signal for intentional foul with both hands over head. My partner clears the lane and I head for the table. At table I give the holding call and verbally call it intentional. B coach thinks I have changed my mind about intentional call and starts yelling that my partner is vlearing the lane. I clearly signaled intentional foul and my partner got it, but showing the hold signal at the table confused the coach. Should I have stuck with intentional foul signal at the table as well? My perceived uncertainty (actually I was never uncertain at all, but coach thought I was) led to some extra fireworks from the coach, and I almost had to T him as well. |

Hey, if you gotta T the coach, then do it. But avoid it, get away the other side ASAYC, and let his voice make it clear that he deserves a T. |

Giving the X at the table is a good idea. In fact, giving the X at the outer reaches of the *reporting area* is a better idea. If the coach needs some clarification, then show him the hold or push. ...But he probably knew what happened during the play and won't even ask. ;) |
