Is this
(1) foul on B1
(2) travelling on A2
(3) no call
This happened in a rec league game. I could not call foul on B1, they both had equal rights to the ball and neither had position. In real time, I saw the hop and called travel, but now that I have time to think I might go with a no call. This might be a HTBT situation, but what do you think?

Maybe neither had position, but it sounds like A1 got the spot first...you did say A1 jumped in front of B1 and landed with the ball while trying to stop when B1 ran into A1 and bumped him.
Like Nevada said, you are left with calling a foul or a travel....a no call is not acceptable...and which one to call depends on exactly the criteria Nevada mentioned...did the bump cause the travel or A1 was going to travel anyway.
