COMMENT: If there is no doubt the throw-in was a result of confusion, the entire procedure would be followed except no unsporting team technical foul would be charged. A team technical would be assessed if the team had received a previous delay warning. This procedure shall not be used in any other throw-in situation in which a mistake allows the wrong team to inbound the ball. (4-47-3; 10-1-5d)
Yes but it does not apply to the OP as the last line is specific that this only APPLIES in this specific case.

But I would not take this back as once the ball is in play we cannot fix it. I will also give the coach a bit more rope than I might normally as I clearly kicked it and I will allow him to vent a bit extra within reason. This has never happened to me and I dont plan on it. But in times when I have screwed up and a coach asks me I tell him that I think I kicked it. If it really hurt him a lot then he will let me know that he's upset, and none have ever crossed the line. But the admission of fault usually is taken with an understanding tone from coaches. Of course I only screw up once! I try and be honest with coaches whenever I can but thats just me personally and I DONT expect the same in return from them.
