One and one signal

[Sharpshooternes]

How do you guys like to signal 1 and 1 when you are lead and have the ball in your hands? Seen a few different ways but haven't found one I like yet.

I bounce the ball once, visually & verbally give the 1 & 1, catch the ball & administer.

You're too quick for me...

Slow day @ the office.

I did notice this one. Seems to be the popular consensus. It was the one I liked the most. Guess I'll give it a try. Thanks.

How do you currently administer?

Drop the ball, signal and state "Bonus" or "One and One" and then catch the ball after the bounce.

Me three. I'll say "Bonus", then "one and one" the first time a team shoots the one and one, and skip the "Bonus" the rest. I'll say "Double Bonus" the first time we shoot 2.

Hold the ball between your hands and raise both index fingers

I signal and verbally state 1-and-1 (arms out) immediately after I release the bounce pass to the shooter.

I do each of these at different times.

does no one verbalize a "play it off the rim" or "rest on the first"?

Nope...the less you say the better off you will be.

Holy heck, that's a pet peeve of mine. And I feel a thread hijack coming on. One that I'll be fighting not to join in on repeatedly.
