I can’t see showing much leniency in this example. IMO she IS part of the play. If a player is camping out in the lane you got to call it because she is gaining an advantage. She's under the basket waiting for the pass and I don’t care where the ball is in the FC.
Admittedly I have been a bit tolerant in grade school games and have allowed maybe 4 or 5 seconds but even in these games I’ll call it because it is so obvious and the kids need to learn.
