A1 throws a long pass late in a tight game that is intercepted by B1. As soon as B1 catches the ball (he is airborn), Coach B, who is standing in front of his bench very near me and B1, calls for TO. B1, on the way down, asks for TO. B1 gets one foot down, then his momentum gives him another, then another (the pivot came up and then back down). I called a travel. Obviously, the question is whether player control is established as soon as one foot comes down (in which case I should have granted the TO), or if instead the player must come down without travelling before control is established?

Wait. Just realized I kicked it. If B1 had intercepted on his way out of bounds and controlled it before landing, I know that he should be granted the TO. Nuts.

Yup, this is not football. Don't have to have both or any feet down to have a catch , I mean possession
