We "bump up" most timeouts.

In 2-man, if the official farther from the table grants the timeout, he "bumps it up" to his partner closer to the table to relay the info to the personnel and stand watch at the circle over the two teams.

The calling official (in these cases) will spot the ball.

We used to do this about thirty years ago. One day the "bump" got miscommunicated, the wrong team was charged with a timeout, and the "powers that be" decided that we could no longer "bump".

In 3 man I always give he ball back to the administering official, or I take it back if I'm supposed to be administering.

In 2-man I will deviate.
