3-whistle: Throw-in below FT line extended

[APG]

Below the FT-line extended, we have the lead bounce to the thrower and have the count, with the trail chopping time in.

For both two and three whistle? I was under the impression the L administering in this case was a two whistle only mechanic.

The other reason I don't like trail mirroring the chop is this: the other day I was about to administer a throw in on the end line and just as I was about to hand the ball to the player I see my partner raise his hand out of the corner of my eye. I stopped the administration and asked him what was up? Then it clicked. Oops. He was doing too good of a job.

That's why I make quick eye contact before every throw in.

Well I did but then he put his hand up after that and so I looked at him again to see why he wanted to stop (subs, garbage on the floor or something else.) I guess a good rule of thumb is to not start the mirror until the ball is at the disposal of the player.

Yeah, I can see how that would be a bit disconcerting. It'll probably be less so once we get used to it, and as if there's a reason to actually stop the process, he should be hitting his whistle, too.

Or go ahead and put the hand up as soon as he gives you the go-ahead nod.

Yeah whistle for sure. I guess its good to know that with everything else going on can still pay attention to my partner.

There is a difference. Hand up for partner to wait should be shoulder to head height. Hand up to chop should be straight up.

Also a good point.
