Control on the throw does not matter!!! Here are the four BC violation requirements:

(1) Team A must have control.
And it under situations where there is no team control that my problem comes into play. Missed shot, no team control, ball is batted about, not a dribble, tap, or hold just a bunch of A and B players trying to gain control. Ball heads OOB and A1 reaches for it and flings/throws it back in one motion. Is there control?

Same thing but on the floor. No team control and kids are diving for the ball. A1 gets a hand on it and flings it back. Is there control?

Notice that I did not say the ball is batted back or did I say it was aimed at A2 or A3…

So yes I must use my judgement.
