Almost the same...
- "You can run" with a side to side hand motion.
- "Spot throw in" just prior to handing the ball to the thrower.

"You can run" and "You can't run" are too close for a noisy environment.
You should consider one of the other options mentioned in this thread.

What if you accompany the "you can run" with a visual signal that also indicates the player can indeed run?

After thinking about it because of this thread, I've refined my verbiage to "You have the endline" and "Hold this spot."

I also use hand signals.

I just don't want to end up in a situation in which the player was confused by my words.
