....the right call was as I headed to the table.

The problem was that the ball was 30 feet upcourt and when the incident happened I called a technical at the spot.

Let's just say that I knew it was the wrong call five steps towards the table (which didn't happen right away because I stayed with the players to make sure there wouldn't be any further activity).

I would bet cash money that I was the only one that knew that I called the wrong thing, but that doesn't matter. I WAS wrong.

Having called the technical, I made the decision to stay with it and get the game started. The player that got the technical was pulled from the game, we shot the throws, and we continued play.

A clear rules mistake that I won't make again.
