We do it as a standard practice for those scorers who actually record the information. More importantly, if a coach happens to ask "who called that" we can answer.

It doesn't? I do it on the few occasions when I keep score.

It's not just a mechanic, it's a rule, and it's not outdated, it's still in the book: 2-11: The scorer shall: Record the time-out information charged to each team (who and when) and notify a team and its coach, through an official, whenever that team is granted its final allotted charged time-out.

Fair enough. We don't have scorekeepers here that go through any kind of formal training, I've never actually seen a recorded "who" part in a scorebook before

Add me into the camp of reporting who requested the timeout. On the somewhat rare times a player is the one requesting, I give the table his/her number.


All times are GMT -5. The time now is 12:27pm.
