I don't particularly like it when it happens (about once or twice a season total) but the alternative is to allow backcourt guarding at that level (at least at the end of a close game). We've tried that and it is more trouble than it's worth.
Just one of those things, I guess.

That is why in our rec ball, a team may press, but only in the last 2 minutes of the game.
