I was Trail (3 person). Inexperienced Lead is administering a front court throw in. Ball is released and in the air, when I hear a whistle from Lead. Whaddayagot? A 5 second violation. So I went and asked him was the ball not released in 5 secinds? He said yes it was, but it wasn't touched by anyone in 5 seconds. I said the ball only has to be released within 5 seconds. So we called it an inadvertant whistle. Then I, using impeccable logic, said since no team had control, we go to the arrow. Nobody complained. Ten seconds later I said to my self...you dumba**...we devoted 3 pages, I think, to this issue. Should have just let team A inbound the ball again .
Thank goodness for scrimmages

LOL, Frank! Experience is really the best teacher. Talking is just another way to speed up the process of experiential learning. So now that you've hashed it through, and goofed, and then re-hashed it in your mind, you'll never make that mistake again. You're golden!
