Officials' Time-out signal and mechanic
I have read the manual, searched here and on-line. Can't find the answer.
What is the proper signal/mechanic for an official's time out following an injury or other instance where I need to stop the game? Is it simply the Stop Clock signal? Do I report that to the table? Thanks. |

You'll often see officials signal a "30" or pat themselves on the chest as an additional (although unnecessary, and technically incorrect) signal. I'm not recommending those, just saying you'll see them in common usage. If the reason you're stopping the game is obvious, nobody's watching you anyway. So a whistle and stop clock is quite sufficient.

This is an easy one. Officials don't have time outs.

A quick verbal or visual communication to that side of the court is not a bad thing.

Sure, but don't you like the break, too?

Did a little more research,
"3.4.6 A. If a player is injured, an officials' time-out shall be declared..." I think that's the only place it's mentioned. |

Be careful - you don't want to be calling a T on yourself if you request over the limit...

So.....
a referee can "declare" a timeout for himself, but a coach or player must "request or ask" for one and then a referee "grants" it, right?

Yea, most times it'll be granted, if the Official hears or sees the request. |
