I usually put the ball between my knees and squeeze hard to keep it there. This allows me to both verbal and visual the one and one signal with no problem. Also gives kind of a suzanne somers workout for my thighs during the game.

You just have to know when to assume. It's more of an art than a science.

I check each position, making sure everyone is legally in, correct the toes if necessary, then just "1", "2", "3" or "1 and 1". As previously said, "More is not always better."

For "1 and 1" I am currently between two styles. I am trying to get into the one bounce "1 and 1" then bounce to shooter. I am trying to drop the hold ball and say "1 and 1" while holding it habit.

In Ontario we often have many players flipping back and forth between FIBA and Federation rule sets. Early in the game if I deem necessary I may remind people in a FED game " once it hits in high school ball." In FIBA, you are allowed to enter on release so many of the players get confused.

Yep, me too.

I also tell throwers-in what type of throw-in it is, a backcourt or frontcourt throw-in, and after a timeout, an end line or spot throw-in.
