That said...if the JV guys were really screwing this up I sort of like that the V ref stepped in to help them if they were in over their heads. "Hey fellas, move away from the coaches and make your ruling" is great advice in this sitch. But I really don't like that they inserted themselves in the final ruling.
The way this court was set up is that there is the 3 foot area for inbounding is colored blue. The table, with the "X" taped to the floor directly in front of it, was about another 3 feet further back from that (I hate being that far back from everything, but that's another complaint for another time). When the initial whistle sounded, the player stood up and when the whistles started blowing when the scuffle broke out, I looked up and the kid was now maybe 1/2 a foot onto the blue area, closer to the backcourt (to my right, fight to my left). I pulled him back just to be certain.
