Non-Correctable Error

It can be corrected up until the throw in has ended. After that, bummer.

And here's the case play for you...

7.6.6 SITUATION:

Team A is awarded a throw-in near the division line. The administering official by mistake, puts the ball at B1's disposal. B1 completes the throw-in and Team B subsequently scores a goal.

RULING: No correction can be made for the mistake by the official after the throw-in ends.

until the throw in has ended.When does the throw in end? 4-42-5. I wish I knew that definition 6 year years ago.

Well...it's location in the rule book has been fairly constant for the past six years. Maybe even longer

And the possession arrow stays pointed toward the team that you incorrectly gave the ball to - so they get the next throw-in also.
Until the next throw-in has ended, this coach may need a hug.

Wrong.

The rules don't allow you to screw up a game THAT badly.

6.4.1 SITUATION D: It is Team B’s turn for the next throw-in under the alternating-
possession procedure. By mistake, Team A is given that throw-in. Team A
(a) commits a throw-in violation, or (b) releases the ball on the alternating-possession
throw-in, but before the ball is legally touched inbounds, Team A or Team
B commits a foul. RULING: Once the throw-in ends – it is too late to change anything.
In (a), the throw-in ends when Team A violates and results in a throw-in for
Team B as well as the arrow for the next alternating possession. In (b), the alternating-
possession throw-in did not end when the foul occurred. Therefore, the
alternating-possession mistake is corrected and the arrow now favors Team B; penalize the foul appropriately. (4-42-5; ; 6-4-4; 6-4-5)

So the team that mistakenly got the throwin on an alternating possession throwin will not get the next arrow?

Am I on the right track?

More simply:

6.4.1 SITUATION: It is Team B’s turn for the next throw-in under the alternating possession procedure. By mistake, Team A is given that throwin. Team A completes the throwin pass and scores. During the dead ball after the made field goal, Coach B questions the officials about the mistaken throwin, and the direction of the next arrow. Who should get that next possession arrow?

I say Team B.

Do I win a cigar?

You would say B and be correct.

Tables can spazz out and turn the arrow and still have no idea what's going on. At least one official on the floor should always have some method of keeping track. Whiffing an AP arrow happens, twice in a row is just poor officiating.
