This message was sent to me last night, as I am a football and softball official I thought I would ask the experts. Here is a portion of the email>
My team played last night, and it was close
>> throughout. With about a minute and half left in the game, my team was
>> down by 1 point. We successfully tied the ball up, the referees looked
>> at the table and gave the ball to my girls. They referees waited a full
>> 6-7 seconds to allow the girls to set-up, and then gave one of my girls
>> the ball to inbound (under our basket). We in bounded the ball
>> successfully and scored to pull ahead by 1 point with less than a minute
>> in the game. The referees then gave the opposing team the ball to inbound
>> and they drove down past the half-court line when his wife (the
>> scorekeeper) shouted to the referees that they had made a mistake on the
>> jump ball, and they should have given the ball to the there team on the jump ball. The
>> referees stopped the game and had our basket taken off the scoreboard
>> with about 30 seconds left in the game - and gave them the ball. That
>> put us 1 point behind, and that's pretty much how the game ended.

Was this done correct, if not what should have happened?
