Q1) When Player A1 is throwing the ball in-bounds from a designated spot and A1 takes off running the endline like it was a made basket. This is a violation (not traveling), what is the proper mechanic?
Q2) In the event that B1 is out-of-bounds in the normal events of the play, then returns to the court to be the first player to touch the ball; however, upon B1's return he enters the court at a point 10 feet from the place he first went out of bounds. This again is a violation. What is the proper mechanic?

I dont know if there is a set mechanic...here is what I do:
I stop the clock (open hand up + whistle), point at the spot the violation occurred. Then I'll point the new direction of play. After all that, I'll verbally tell the violater what they did and of course sometimes have to relay that same message to the coach.
Old Guys....does this sound right?
