We had this situation last week in a JV game.
Held ball. A's arrow. A1's throw-in sails OOB untouched. B's ball at original spot due to the violation. We didn't switch the arrow.
The Case Book play (6.3.5) makes it clear that A should have lost the arrow.
I was the most experienced official on the court. My partner looked to me. The table official was unsure. I should have known.
What frustrates me most is that despite a rereading and study of the rules and cases every year, there are always situations that occur each season for which I feel not fully prepared. This was yet another.
I'll get it next time.
