I turn, report my foul, and go back to administer the throw-in.
What I didn't know, was L was not transitioning for the switch, he was going around the backside of the players (I was table side) to report his foul and then took his proper position as new C, opposite table.

At the quarter break, the T comes up to us and asks if we realize we'd both reported the same foul.
I could see how that could happen being new. The guys it happened to were seasoned officials however. But yes as one man said sh*t happens.

and yes that word is cencored so must be profane lol.....sorry couldn't resist
