Are you calling a Balk?

It's an immediate and yet a delayed-dead ball.

Just goes to show that local leagues should let the rules writing to someone else.

I'm curious to know how a pickoff from the windup should be handled.

It's a balk and not a balk.

Reminds me of a playoff game a few years ago where I called such a balk and the coach told me he had never heard of such a thing. Or the college game where I left a balk live and the coach and my partner(!!!) (who works D1 games) tried convincing me balks were immediate dead balls.

I go out these days assuming I'm the only one on the field that knows the rules unless I know my partners really well.
