Team A has the throw-in (player A1 throwing it in), Team B is defending (player B1 defending the throw-in).

1) A1 does not throw the ball in within 5 seconds
2) A1 steps over the line when throwing the ball in.
3) A1 leaves the designated spot during the throw-in (not a traveling, right?).
4) B1 breaks the plane of the OOB line. (Violation? T?)

What else?
I know this might seem kinda picky, but I just want to point out that #1, #2 and #3 are violations, not fouls. If A violates during the throw-in, they do lose the arrow (if it's an AP throw-in), and they lose the endline (obviously). If A fouls, they lose the endline privilege, again obviously, but they don't lose the arrow. For that reason, it's importnat to distinguish between fouls and violations, rather than lumping violations under fouls. For an over-arching word, use "infractions".
