Rule 9 Section 2 Article 11 says "The opponent of the thrower shall not have any part of his person through the inbounds side of the throw-in boundary plane...."
The penalty says "The first violation of the throw-in boundary plane by an opponent of the thrower shall result in a team warning for delay...."
So.... it is a violation.... and the ball is given back to the same team at the same place.....but because of the violation... by definition this is not an AP throw-in anymore.
Therefore the official (table) should not reverse the AP arrow.

There is an argument, though, that you are penalizing Team B twice for one violation. The first penalty being the warning and the second being losing the AP.
I predict this thread will be long.
