It is for sure an indirect Tech....
Art. 5. Until the thrown-in ball crosses the plane of the sideline or end line:
a. The thrower-in shall not leave a designated spot;
b. No opponent of the thrower-in shall have any part of his or her person over the inside plane of the sideline or end line;
Example:
A.R. 17. B1 makes contact with the ball being passed between A1 and A2 while they are out of bounds. (See Rule 7-5.8.) RULING: A defensive player shall not interfere with the ball not yet successfully thrown in. Indirect technical foul on B1.
I now see on the Foul/Penalty Chart that an indirect T resumes at the POI.
