Below varsity, I would agree to a do over. At varsity or above, they need to know that the ref is part of the floor and should see you (as well as defenders who may sneak in). There are all sorts of other situations where you could be out of position and in the way and you wouldn't call them back if the ball hit you. There was an earlier thread on this, where a ref hadn't gotten clear near the baseline and the ball hits him. I see this as no different. Coach will scream at you (rightfully - you screwed up), but players need to have awareness of everything on the court. And what if you are on one of those courts with 1/2 foot of space at end line?
