I've had an IW this year -- I thought a HC was asking for a timeout, he was calling for a play that sounded like "time out". I shrugged, called it an IW, the coaches shrugged, and I put the ball back into play.
Now, the officiating part:
Slow down. You anticipated a foul/call. As the level of play gets higher, you will do this and the player with the ball will do something remarkable and you will be standing there like you did.
Anticipate the play, let the fouls happen and then report them.
