Warm Up 15-Second Horn

[ilyazhito]

My practice is to sound the horn with 15 seconds left in each of the warmup periods and at the end of each period to remind teams to change over. However, this may change to a long whistle if I am working a game at a venue where multiple courts are used.

In my area of IL, we were told to use the horn during warm ups. After that, time outs, between sets, etc, it is the 15 second double whistle.

And that's what I've been told, too -- I was just trying to find it in the book(s) -- now that I understand it's not in there, I'll stop looking. I understand that other areas may do it differently -- I (personally) do not want a poll on all the different ways of doing so.
