Maybe, but it's not a violation until he touches it again. Otherwise, you could never throw a bounce pass after you ended your dribble.

Oh I don't know.... if it's a bounce pass, it's not a dribble (judgment right?). A dribble is started by pushing the ball to the floor (Art 15.3). It doesn't say you have to touch it again for it to be a dribble. If you thought the player at camp was dribbling when they pushed the ball to the floor, you called the violation correctly right? Check out case 4.15.4 Situation A. Note that the violation occurs when A1 pushes the ball to the floor, not when A1 catches it after it hits the floor. Under your explanation, A1 might have been passing so it couldn't have been a violation until A1 touched it again.
