Now here is my question: Given that the rulebook does addess this it clearly states "knowingly" for it resulting in a Player Technical.

Would it be better to take the path of least resistance and just apply the Correctable Error rule and give White 15 his orginial 2 shots and cancel the 1 made by White 13???

Thanks
I do about 30-40 games at this level every year. Half the time the kids at this level don't know if they're the shooter or the fouler. Take the path of common sense and use the CE rule. Did you ask your partner later if he was positive? What led him to believe this was the case?
