What do you got ?

#1.....Competive and decent 7th grade game. Team A scores. Team B player #1 grabs the ball goes OOB. I start the 5 second count. Player #1 then passes to Player #2 who then runs directly OOB to restart the throw in. I call travelling, it was about 3 big steps before Player #2 went OOB. Some watching were of the opinion I should have let them "restart the throw in". Was I OOO ?
What do you think ?

#2.....Same game , same teams...Team A scores. Team B grabs the ball and looks to throw the ball in. He then realizes he is not OOB yet so he backs up a step and then completes the throw in. I had nothing......Some were of the thought I called one I needed to call the other .

My thinking is along the lines of if I haven't started my 5 second count I have nothing-if I have started my count I have something. Thoughts please....
