Assistant Coach during V games

The person handling the scorebook is great at letting the HC &/or AC know when someone is in foul trouble, or the timeouts left. During the Varsity games, the scoreboard/timer & scorebook are in constant communication with one another as to who shot the ball, who's got how many fouls, & AP.

Why I am asking for opinions &/or thoughts is that how I am reading/understanding the POE, the only time an AC is supposed to be standing up outside of the Coaches Box is when a timeout is called or coming on the floor for pregame or back from halftime.

Especially at the JV / C-level games you do, let it go. THere often aren't enough bodies on the bench to keep track of it there.

During the JV & C-Squad games, I only have to worry about the one coach. Periodically, the V Coach will check the JV Book for a player's playing status as they're also a V player. However, the V Coach normally is doing that at halftime, during timeouts, or after the final buzzer.

The AC is doing the scorebook check while ball is in play during the V games.

I'm just trying to properly interpret the POE.

bbcoach7...

I'm surprised nobody here has corrected your mistaken thought that you only have 10 seconds left after the 1st horn...

you in fact have 15 seconds left after the 1st horn on all timeouts and disqualifications.

60 second time out...horn sounds at the 45 second mark/with 15 seconds left

30 second time out...horn sounds at the 15 second mark/with 15 seconds left

DQ....horn sounds after 5 seconds with 15 seconds left

at least that's the way we do it around these parts.

Your interpretation should be to ignore it, unless the actions are causing you to be unable to do your job.
