That's what the Fed recommends you do. However, what did you pre-game for DQ'd players?

I'm not a big voice guy, but always visibly in any position raise arm for number of shots to partners. As lead last year raised two fingers as C toots and says "one" Thank you very much, Mr C |

At the very least, turn and tell your partners immediately; otherwise you'll have a sub coming in during a live ball and some officials will tell you that you should call the T. ![]() You can bet I'll make sure this gets brought up in my pre-game tonight.

Something to think about... While it was something that no one in the stands probably thought looked bad. Anyone who knew exactly what was going on probably thought it did...but I couldn't consider it something so bad that it ruined your game. Just a valuable learning experience. |

The real problem was the L administering the FT while the T was still occupied with the DQ. Of course, that's why all 3 officials should be signaling the number of shots to each other before EACH shot. |

Perhaps he was an ex coach. Why would he be yelling?? Silly. |

I'm not sure if I like it or not. Informing the coach yourself gives you the opportunity to give a QUICK explanation which they are often looking for on a 5th foul and then inform the timer to start the clock - or better yet inform the timer to start the clock and THEN give a quick explanation. If it becomes heated you can always get out of there after, but at least the coach is on the clock. If you go get one of your partners to tell the coach, you are really giving them another 10 seconds or so to sub which effectively becomes a 30 second time out. Now to your point and that in the OP, you DEFINITELY want to pre-game this and make sure your partners know what is going on. If your partners are worth a damn they should not administer when you have your back to the floor EVER! |

When the reporting official goes table side on this, he usually just turns around. The L could easily just glance and see him in position, looking towards the bench and think everything is Kosher. Mistakes happen.
I think the mechanic was put in place to difuse things, but to me the real benefit is ensuring the game isn't continued while your back is turned.

A. More communication between the partners. More eye contact, more talk, more signals.
B. Even if no communication, L should have seen you at the table and held the FT admin. All three whistles need to be more aware of the whole floor. C. Evaluator needs to not yell, especially about something that un-impact-ful. Yea, it looks bad, but it was small, had no effect on the game, and you all still learned a lesson. Definitely not worth a temper tantrum.

If there's a time to slow the game down, it's when you have to take care of an administrative procedure. Your partner obviously wasn't confirming with you on the shots before administering. All that said, I've been in games where partners want to make an effort to "speed up the game". While I'm all for hustling to position and not lolly-gagging administrative stuff, this often leads to these types of problems. If you and your partners have, several times before in the game, administered free throws before making eye contact with the reporting official, there was no reason for them to wait for you this time. What did you do to tell them it was different? There are lots of times we can hustle and take care of business quickly. There are a few times when slowing the game down is critical. There is never a time to get in such a big hurry that both or all three partners aren't on the same page. |

Right. If it's "fouling at the end of the game to stop the clock and everyone knows it", then let the calling official handle it. If it's "a close block/charge" and the calling official has alreadyhad words with the coach, let another official handle it. It's up to the calling official to decide. And, either way, all officials need to know what is going on before anyone else is told. This applies to 5th fouls, bonus, lenght of time outs, what happens after the TO is granted , .... |

![]() Can't speak to the NF mechanics, under FIBA 3-person once the calling official is done reporting the foul, they are to take the TRAIL position opposite the table which then leaves the new CENTER official table side to administer subs / time out requests and 5th foul situations. By using the proper procedure it eliminates the chance that something like this could occur. If I was the calling official in your snitch... - I'd report the foul - if the table informs me that it's the player 5th, I'll tell my closest partner and take my new position as Trail opposite. - Partner informs player & coach - Partner adminsiters the sub and any time out requests You'd made a comment that following the procedure outlined in your mechanics manual "slows the game down." Didn't you just slow the game down by blowing your whistle to kill the play just to give the ball back to the same team? Quote:

If I was observing your game, I'd only ask each of your crew 3 questions... Terrapins Fan - Why did you not use the proper procedure to inform the coach and player that they've fouled out? New Lead - Why are you rushing through the FT when it was pretty obvious that Terrapins Fan was not ready? New Center (assuming you're using the FIBA mechanics) - Why did you not tell new lead to hold up and wait for Terrapins Fan to be ready? You could always look at it this way. "If that's the only thing we screwed up to get grilled on in the whole game, we must of done a good job." My 2 cents. |
