Signal 17
Can someone please explain NFHS signal 17 to me?

When you are the trail official for a 2 man crew on a Free Throw.
1 shot. 2 shots. 3 shots. |
Signal for how many free throws are about to happen.
|
The calling official or center official signals what kind of FTs are awarded. In some cases the administering official does the same. Check your local listings on who does what and when.
I also do not do exactly what the book shows, a simple two handed signal for one and one or one hand for two/three shots works. I do not have to spread out like Jesus on the cross to give that information. Peace |
So is this done in both 2 and 3 man? Is this the required signal for how the number of shots is to be communicated? Does this mean I cannot signal the number of shots with one hand at eye level?

However, that picture is not saying that your arm angle should drop with each increase in the number of shots. It is simply suggesting that the signal is to be used for 1, 2, or 3 shots....with the arms extended with the correct number of fingers. Personally, I indicate the number of FTs in basically the same manner I as do in reporting the a foul...with my hand out in front and to the side of me with the fingers pointing upwards. Basically, EVERYONE in the crew, regardless of 2 or 3 man should be communicating the number of shots to be taken. Everyone MUST be on the same page here. Short of communicating it, you can't be sure of that and you're not going to be yelling it to each other or getting together after every foul. |

And this has nothing to do with 2 or 3 man, as it does not have anything specifically to do with where you stand or go on the floor. Peace |

I guess I was initially confused by the wording "bonus free throw for 2nd throw, drop one arm" Only once have I seen an official use the shots signal out to the side while reporting, everyone else does it up high. |

So unless someone tells you to do it that way, then I bet they do not care. Otherwise you would have known what the signal was in the first place. ;) Peace |
