This happened in the first half so at halftime we talked about it. He had the jump ball signal. I made eye contact with him and verbalized and pointed that we have white ball. I even saw him point in the proper direction. However, the black team was rather young and didn't catch on and they moved to the designated throw-in spot and he didn't see who he was giving the ball to. I told him I should have made sure as well and helped him out but I was watching some activity during the throw-in. I told him he should try to make sure he sees who he's giving the ball to so this doesn't happen. This was his 2nd year officiating and is rather young. After that he did a fine job and he calmed down in the second half. This was a game I wouldn't want to have as my first. But at the same time you can learn quickly!
