Shot Clock Operator With every shot clock there needs to be a shot clock operator, who is in
charge or resetting the shot clock every time a new possession begins
during a game. Shot clocks are not able to know when a new possession
begins, so the shot clock is programmed to reset with the touch button,
which the operator is in charge of hitting. The operator must be playing
full attention in order to not mess up the shot clock, therefore, messing
up the possible outcome.
Umpire Umpires handle the clock (making sure the timer knows when to pause
and restart the game clock due to a stoppage in play) and basic foul calls.
For example, the umpire will likely be the official; to handle down ruling
when a defensive player makes contact with an opposing shooter.
