Sounds a lot like the play you describe fits this description.
2. In a game involving young kids, when in doubt, held ball is not a bad option, in a lot of different situations..

I am familiar with the rule (except that I've foolishly continually glossed over the word pass in the second part, as evidenced by my earlier secondary question), it's just that I'm just now realizing that being pushed to the court, even legally, would constitute undue roughness. I've always just thought of it as, "Blow the whistle before a wrestling match breaks out," but that's obviously a bit too close-minded. Thanks.
