All of a sudden, the L from the endline blows the whistle and calls the backcourt violation. I admit, I wasn't 100% sure but upon conferring I said there was no possession so no violation but L and C were adamant, so we stuck with the call. In the locker room after the game, the varsity officials who were there agreed with them, with one essentially castigating me for not getting it.

Wow! Perhaps if your local association has a website where you can post questions you can get the correct answer posted by your interpreter. Or, send the play to D.M. for him to post on his plays of the week.
