We are instructed not to use the NFHS team control signal when signaling a team control foul.

In Georgia, the player control signal disappeared 4-5 years ago. We use the Team Control signal on all offensive fouls. Also…..Walking while reporting is encouraged.

The PC signal is the dumbest signal in the book. It is difficult for me to go back and forth between FIBA with their offensive foul signal and FED with the goofy PC signal.

PC fouls need to be sold. The hand to the back of my head signal is the weakest signal in the book.

I don't like walking while reporting- Coming to a stop gives the scorer that extra second to make sure they are on the same page as you.

C'mon constable. Please tell us what you really think. Don't hold back anything, you can get an ulcer.

I have not seen anyone hardly that ever does the signal by the book. Most people point out with their other hand. And I do not think you need to "sell" it any more than you do by making the signal. Most of those calls are obvious IMO.
