I clearly announced one and one, so I have no idea what was going on there. I even confirmed with my partner that I had announced it. Guess they weren't quite ready to play on a Saturday morning.
Had something similar happen again last night during a girl's 8th grade game. We line up for 1 and 1 and I very clearly announce it as such. The first shot misses, is rebounded by an A team player who hands the ball to a B team player. B team player takes off the other direction and away we go.
