In a game I worked Saturday, we started them off wrong somewhere in the second half. Team A scored on the first pocession. Team B was equally confused and was robustly defending.
When Team B inbounded the ball we noticed that they were heading the wrong way and we stopped the game and turned them around the right way.
Coach B argued that his Team should of been awarded 2 points on the first shot that Team A made in the wrong basket.
I said "No" and stuck to it. I was thinking it wasn't a Correctible Error because the ball was "Live" when we discovered it but in thinking about it......I'm not so sure?
I know when a kid goes the wrong way "by himself" he scores 2 for the other Team. But when you line them up wrong, that doesn't apply, right? What is the basis for the ruling?
