I hit my whistle and immediately knew I'd screwed up, declared an IW, and gave the ball to A at the division line and flipped the arrow to B.
I hope he at least gave the arrow to A on this, but I'm doubtful since 20 years ago that wouldn't have been the proper ruling. |
IW , Inadvertant Whistle ?
I'm pretty sure the arrow went to B as soon as the throw in ended,that also puzzled me for a second . IMO, jumper A1 was already penalized and lost the ball, and now the arrow went to B as well .
Looking at rule 6 sec. 3 I dont see anything re: touching the restraining circle and grabbing the ball . Is that why it is legal ?
Oh well, reckon I'll study 6-4 , AP arrow now !
