We were told tonight for the Boys' V, to stop the clock as soon as official was in FRA reporting the foul & number of FTs.

The other night when I had the running clock during the Boys' C-Squad game, I stopped the clock as soon as I saw the calling official signal FTs before reporting the foul.

Also how often do you hear fans yelling about the clock still running?

That'll be up to your state association as to when the clock should be stopped. If you were told to stop the clock as soon as the foul and number of free throws were indicated, then do so.

As to the fans yelling about the clock, who cares? If what you say is true and this is the first year adopting the running clock, then expect to hear the cat calls until everyone realizes the rule change.
