Handshake or Fist pound?
This one has been bugging me lately. No consistency. Some old school refs will only handshake and the youngsters all pound. Me....I dont care but make it universal. It looks silly when you do one thing, your partner does another and the player does the opposite.
Also, does it change when your dealing with player?coach? partners?table? |

I fist pound. Then again why would you care what your partner's do on something as trivial as this?
Peace

I will shake a coaches hand, bump fists with players and bump fists with my partners...in the locker room. I don't need/want the attention that waiting to run out while I bump fists with my partners may bring. [shrug] just a Tomism.
I also agree with others, what difference does it make what your partners do?

+1. My assignor ripped me a new one for giving the captains a fist bump so now it's reserved for partners. |

When in Rome.....
Last yr our Association "directed" we do the handshake for players (we always did that for captains and coaches). A lot of folks didn't like that because of flu season and all - just sayin.
Now, new Association, we seem to be back to fist bumps for players, hand shakes for captains and coaches, and of course fist bumps for us right before tipoff.....so much to remember!

Your assignor doesn't have enough things to worry about, apparently. What a stupid thing to rip somebody for.

Shake hands with coaches, fist bump with players and chest bump partners, especially after a solid call.

Hand shake captains and coaches...fist bump players during introductions (I wouldn't care if they banned this completely. I will have plenty of time to interact with players DURING the game.)...hand shake with partners.

That's how I did it, but our board just received instructions last week that it's always a handshake, not a fist bump. Roman Law rules again.
