NFHS - Two Hand Reporting

SAK · #1 (**permalink**) Thu Jun 02, 2011, 10:57am

When doing one handed reporting we are supposed to vocalize the number that is on our hand "Five, two" rather than "Fifty-two."

How many actually do that?

Always been taught opposite...to actually say the number. Too easy for a scorer to hear only one of the numbers. A lot harder to mistake fifty-two rather than five-two.

Not me. I do the opposite. Just as APG described.
I have had this discussion with fellow officials. And I recall, all that is mentioned in the book is to 'Report the Number'. It does not say report each seperate digit.

If I had my way, I'd cut off the hand of anyone doing two handed reporting. Its totally unnecessary (at least for HS and College and less than 5 as a digit -- and since there are plenty of numbers, that is sufficient) and potentially confusing.

Please: why does everything have to move to mimic what professional leagues are doing? Adopting good ideas and ones that benefit the game are fine, but a wholesale changeover for the hell of it (half circle in the lane is one of the better, more stupid idea, examples)?

Every clinician/supervisor/assigner I've ever met has said say the number, not the digits.
