Small Mechanics tips

[ballgame99]

I watched a state final 4 game with several veteran officials from my association (my mentor was working the game) and they would throw out small mechanics tips here and there. Examples:

As the T, don't run down the floor with your arms up after a made three, just stick it for a click or two and get down the floor (let the C hold it).

Don't look back for your number as you are running to the table. Get it before you head that way.

When calling a foul, think Bang, Bang, Bang. Bang one is the fist and plant your feet, bang two is a preliminary signal, bang 3 is ball placement or signaling shots. Then go report. I like that one.

Anyone got any tips like that?
