Thanks guys. Incidentally Brian, we came close in our first game last weekend. 11 year old AAU team, first tournament game, all hyped up, win the tip, sprint down to attempt to score but in the wrong basket, defense bails us out with a good play. The other team then turns around and begins to attack up court the wrong way and we knock it OOB - no points scored for either side. At that point, the refs decided (given confusion on both teams part) to go to the arrow and gave the ball OOB at half court to the other team. Probably didn't need to go to the arrow, but all worked out in the end, especially since that age group averages more jump balls than baskets per game.
