Actually, this very thing happened to us last Sat. in a JUCO game. The players lined up for the first of two free throws in the first half, then B1 decides her contact is bothering her and heads back towards her bench as the ball is bounced to the shooter. So, as A1 misses the first shot, B1 is standing next to her bench trying to fix her contact, and no one is in that first spot.

Sigh. Delayed violation, A1 shoots again. Coach says, "Huh?" We explain it, he says, "Oh, yea, you're right. Good catch." No more contact problems the rest of the game.
