Um, I hate to tell you but the ball wasn't ready for play. it wasn't ready for play because your partner wasn't ready to have the ball put into play. And an administering official does not put the ball into play because a coach ....any coach...tells him to if his partner isn't ready.
This may have been a competititive or even (gasp) an elite 8th grade game.....but.....it's a freaking 8th grade game. Save the philosophical discussions for
after the game and have them
with your partner. That's the time to work them out, not
during an 8th grade game. And if you can't agree and it's still bothering you, get further direction from your association.
JMGO.
