A Coupla Things to Try, Maybe
Quote:
1) Brief mention in pregame with coaches: "Have your players ready to come out on the first horn, we'd like to make the ball live on the second." When this is stated, they are better at it than when this is not stated. 2) When officials go the huddle and say "First Horn", a whistle from each after saying that seems also to bring 'em out better prior to the second horn. When we've done it, it's better. When we don't, it isn't. Lather, rinse, repeat. Your results may vary.

1) Sounds like he was doing it a lot - hit them on offense just once, and that should fix it. A lost possession is a more fair penalty than a free 2 pts for the other team. 2) That said ... 10-15 seconds? I probably would have put the ball in play for the other team as well --- after maybe the 2nd offense even. That's a LONG time.

The length of the timeout varies as much on the front end as it does on the back. Some officials will follow the team to the edge of the huddle and spend 10 seconds asking "Full or 30?" About the only significant thing I tell coaches in pregame is let me see a 30 signal or it will be a full. Then, if you get lucky and have a timer who actually starts in a timely fashion and measures the length of the timeout you are all right.

SOme areas hear the horn, count to 2 (or so), blow the whistle and put the ball on the floor.
Some areas hear the horn, go back in, clap their hands, wait a while, and then the teams come out. Most are somewhere inbetween. You don't want to be (too much) different from the norm in your area. |

They need to at least be breaking the huddle at the second horn.
When going to ROP I prefer to hit them when their either on offense, or defending a backcourt throw in during the first half. "Prefer" does not mean require, though.
