One And One, Two Shots, Three Shots, etc. ...
I prefer to say, "One shot", or whatever the number of free throws will be, and then bounce the ball.

Ditto. I learned this on this forum this year. I used to say "Let it hit", but now I just use the "One shot" or "Two shots" or "One and one".

When a kid shoots an air ball and then has another shot coming, when I throw it back to him I say, "Boy, that sucked". Usually they laugh and say, "Yeah".
I don't do that too much in 3rd grade games, however.

I did quite a few 5th grade games this year where it was clear that players hadn't ever played before. In those games, I say, "Wait till it hits", at least in the second half. In the first half I say, "Okay kids, don't step in until the ball hits something, got it? Stay in your spots until it's legal" Coaches actually appreciate this.

Maybe when the coach can only call TOs during a dead ball?

This fan also showed up to the opener one year to razz that same official and called to him before the tip to reveal his 'foot locker shirt'. The official smiled at him, unzipped his jacket and revealed that the crew was going with grey that night. Everyone had a good chuckle over that.

You mean you're advocating coaches being allowed to call timeouts? YIKES!
OK - here we go again.

Generally, anything beyond "One", "One and one", "Two", or "Three" is bothersome to me.

2001-2002 Interps Part 2. SITUATION 12: Team A has used all allotted time-outs. The scorer notifies the referee, who properly advises the Team A coach at the beginning of Team A’s last called time-out. During play later in the game, A4 attempts to call time-out when he/she is being pressured by B2 and 83. U2 ignores the request by A4. RULING: U2 should honor the request of A4, even when this would be a time-out in excess of the number allotted. Game officials do not have discretionary authority to assist players in avoiding rules violations. (2-7-6; 5-12-2) |
