Now that I've had some time to step back and think about it and hear other people's take on it, it seems really obvious. But in that split second when something unexpected like this happens and you have to process and make a call immediately, I second guessed myself because I seemed to be the only one in the gym who thought I did the right thing. It looked "funny" because it was an odd play.
When I posted in my association's FB page, all but one person agreed with what people are saying here. He thought I should have given the ball back to Team A. When I asked why, given the pretty clear rule on the matter, he replied "Understanding the rule, protect the integrity of the game." Head scratcher...
