I cannot wait for the answer that the evaluator gave for this situation. I do not think anyone disagrees that you should have made eye contact and you should pay more attention to listening for your partner's whistles. All that is mute right now. What do you do when you there?
It seems as though the players kind of told you what happened. The A player had inbounded the ball before your partner's whistle. In other words you blew your whistle before your partner. You know not just by the sound, but because you put your hand up before your partner. By rule, the ball is dead due to violation. Team A is then given the timeout and then out of the timeout: give the ball to Team B.
Talking to the coaches' is good game management, but it also gives them an opportunity to yell at you. I stick by what I said earlier. I think the players told you what had happened.
This is a good case study!!!
