Mechanics on Warning's

[Ref Daddy]

How does one signal and communicate a "warning" such as intruding over the end line on a throw in.

By rule each team gets 1.

How to signal it in a loud guy (non verbally)?
How does your partner pick it up?
Where does it go in the scorebook?

Each team gets up to 3 One for breaking the throw-in plane, one for touching the ball after a made basket, one for huddling during free throw administration.

There's no official signal, if that's what you're asking. I blow the whistle, and announce it as loud as I can. "Warning for breaking the plane!" If the scorer or my partner doesn't hear me then I go directly to the table.

Where does it go in the scorebook?

I was thinking that a team got only 1 warning, and then the next delay of any kind was a technical, as opposed to getting up to 3 warnings. Perhaps I was wrong...

I do this by announcing it loudly for everybody at the same time. Physically going to the table and then to the coach only prolongs the illegal delay.

Nope. Each warning is separate.

If you look at 10-1-5 c and d, they mention that a technical foul is issued after warning "for this delay." A team can break the plane, interfere with the ball after a goal, and huddle before a FT once each during a game and not get penalized.

Chuck,when this rule first came out,we were told that we HAD to go the table to make sure that it was recorded properly,and then to the head coach in his bench area to give him the warning.That's the procedure that we insist on our guys using.I just checked with a coupla supervisors,and they said that that is the only accepted procedure in their area.If the coach to be warned happens to be at the far end of the gym,do you just holler it at him/her?What do you do if it's a noisy gym?What do you do if the coach isn't looking at you?How do you handle it if you call a T later,and the coach then claims that he/she never heard the first warning?

What is the meaning of life?

Inquiring minds need to know!!

PS-what do other areas do?

As I said earlier, if I feel the scorer (and now I'll add "or coach") hasn't understood or hasn't heard the warning, I'll go to the table to make sure they get it right.

I think that the Python (Monty) troupe has some intriguing insights on this question.

Oh, come on, this one is easy:

Actually, according to Deep Thought, the universal and eternal answer is 42. The real concern is, what is the question? I don't think that Douglas Adams, from whom I am citing, ever really got that settled.
