ACC championship
 
Watching ACC tourney championship game...

Two-handed reporting seems not only acceptable but prevalent.

Is Valentine on the crew? He's the only one I've seen use it regularly.

Too bad for you.

Anyway, NCAA-W has used two-handed reporting for the past several years.

I haven't seen any two hand reporting in the ACC this year.

eyezen Sun Mar 15, 2009 04:11pm

I watched the championship game today for most the first half and saw it from more than one official on more than one occasion. Not a big deal but just an observation. As I live in BigXII country I don't watch much ACC basketball so I can't comment on the regular season only this game.

According to an email I received a couple weeks ago, it's on John Adams' list of possible mechanics changes for the men next year as well.

I have seen a lot of NCAA-M officials reporting using 2-Hand machanics this season. Most also chop the clock in as the trail as the lead on front court throw ins.

Ref Ump Welsch Mon Mar 16, 2009 10:12am

I'm seeing more and more of the two-handed signals on foul reporting at the JUCO levels around here.

bradfordwilkins Mon Mar 16, 2009 10:17am

Dumb question...

What is two-handed reporting? Is it referring to when you are reporting the foul using both hands (i.e. 2 fingers on one handed and 3 on the other to indicate foul on 23?)

M&M Guy Mon Mar 16, 2009 10:26am

No, and yes. :)

No, it was not a dumb question, and yes, two-handed reporting is using both hands for each digit of the player's number.

I saw this as well in the ACC Mens Tourney.

I wouldn't be surprised if the NCAAM switch over to using two hands next season...I work NCAAW and I prefer using 2 hands to report fouls.

Welpe Tue Mar 17, 2009 01:06pm

So how about another stupid question...:rolleyes:

With two hand reporting, I imagine you signal the player digits backwards (to you) so they read correctly from left to right for the table?

yes - 32 would be 3 with the right hand and 2 with the left.

APG Tue Mar 17, 2009 01:20pm

Yes, that would be correct

Yes, and I cringed when I see officials who do it backwards, especially in games where 2-handed reporting is not the proper mechanic.

It takes some getting use to doing it, but once you start, you cant stop!!!!!!

The problem is the ones who can't stop doing it wrong. We have a couple on our board.
