I know, wrong sport... but similar.
Middle school football game with only one non-standard rule. They do not rush PAT's unless they go for 2.
Ball is snapped for a PAT - holder catches it high and stand up. Center turns around and holder hands him the ball (we had some debate at halftime whether he was 1 yard behind the line ... but he was close enough for me - no one flagged him). Center turns around and snaps it again. Holder then stands up, says, "OK, we're ready" and throws me the ball.
I get out of the way and move away from the ball. Holder gives me a WTH look, retrieves the ball... and THROWS it toward the center - it bounces once before getting there.
I was never prouder of my crew than this moment when all 3 of us lay on the whistle with both L and H signalling an incomplete pass.
Coach could do nothing but laugh when we explained it to him.
