I killed the play, called the runner out for the LB violation and put the BR back at 1st. Coach is just standing there with his jaw on the ground and all the parents are going nuts. The coach finally came over and asked me to explain the call. I gave him a brief explanation of the look back requirements and he walked away still looking bewildered.

"I killed the play, called the runner out for the LB violation and put the BR back at 1st."
Is this an ASA rule? or some other codes for that matter?
In NSA, the ball is not dead on LBR violation. Runner at third would be out and ball is still live and BR is liable to be put out, but may run to second or return to first subject to LBR for the BR.
