I won't even pretend that it sucks. Pre-game, you don't need to your have rabbit ears up, and you don't need to go looking for trouble (and you didn't). What happens before and after games off the court in rec ball should, IMHO, be left to the league to deal with. If they want to impose a penalty, great. If not, it's not my problem. If they are so lax that it becomes painful to work there, I have other places I can work.
In more formal settings, like a school game, your juridiction begins at least 15 minutes before the game. But even then, keep the rabbit ears pulled down and don't go patroling for trouble.
If trouble finds you, however, take care of business.
