I've found one citation so far for "hands-in" being used as a noun. It's plausible that others exist but they're hard to find. 70.172.194.25 19:36, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Found another, so now only one more is needed. I suspect it can be found with some good searching.
If "hands-in huddle" counts, this passes, but that's not really using it as a noun unless you want to argue it's attributive. Also found some quotes where people say "hands in!" before doing the huddle, but that's an interjection. 70.172.194.25 19:57, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
I added two more "do a hands-in". Cnilep (talk) 23:48, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'd call this cited, thanks. Do you think "hands in" as an interjection is worth having? Arguably SOP, I guess. But we have hands up which is comparable. 70.172.194.25 03:35, 10 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
