Not necessarily.

If there's team control, POI, team A keeps the ball.

If there's a shot and the basket is good, POI, Team B gets the ball for throw-in, with the opportunity to run the endline.

True. I did not consider those scenarios. Thanks.

I've had one blarge this year. I was the lead and had a block. My partner was the trail and a had a charge.

We had a double whistle and fists up, but neither made the next signal. We had eye contact, so we approached each other to talk about it.

I thought it was an easy block, but my partner told me the dribbler had an outstretched limb, which made the initial contact. In this case, we opted not to go with the double foul, and my partner reported the PC foul. (It made for an interesting moment, as the kids starting to line up at the lane while we were discussing.)

Simply put, talk about it first. If you still insist that you're call is right, and your partner sees it differently, the only choice is a double foul. However, it helps to communicate first.

That's not a blarge. That's a double whistle.

:) Yeah, sorry about that. You're ability to withhold the prelims saved you from having to go DF.

Exactly. Double whistle, no prelims, easy to settle. Not a blarge.

If There's A Double Whistle In The Forest, And No One Hears It ???

That's exactly the way we're taught to handle it. Of course, this only works if both of you hear each other's whistle.

Or, they could anticipate that the call is in such an area where a double whistle is likely and actually LOOK at their partners.

In my pre-game, I tell my partner that I expect a few double whistles, in the right areas, for the right reasons, at the right times. And I tell them that I have the ability to give the preliminary signal - hand raised, open or in a fist - without going to the secondary signal, until we have checked with each other. It only takes a moment to determine which of us will take the call.
As the players and coaches see our communication, it helps with their confidence that our crew is working together, and trying to get the calls right.
