Hey dork...

Great question and great answers.

...but, you know what? In my area we don't get hung up on if you give signal #36 or signal #38 as in your OP.

Just get the kid for this, IMO, "unsporting act". Your OP had the player agressively shoving another player...I'd whack him/her and not think another thing of it.

If you think to much...you may miss these type of plays. WE NEED TO GET THESE! GET UM AND DON'T WORRY if the ball will be taken out at opposite table or at the spot of the foul.

BTW...I have had several of these live ball T's in my career and never a word from anyone that matters.

In fact, there once was a great dinosaur of a man that lurked about on this site...that told me he had no problem with me T'ing a kid in a live ball situation, that I had indeed described here. He said it was better to get the kid than miss the call because you are worrying about what signal to put up.
