Inbounding ?

[loners4me]

yes stolen midflight. Really tough to judge as your watching a moving ball over an imaginary plane

could you call DOG and say you called the violation when sherl reached across, killing the play and making the touching of the ball irrelevant?

No. The rule specifically says that touching the ball when it is OOB during a throw-in is a technical.

Not if the ball was across the boundary....and that is the point of the question. The OP felt the ball may have been across the boundary. If so, this was a legal play.

If the player reaches THROUGH the boundary and touches the ball while it is being held by the thrower in or is in the air on OOB side of end line to another player out of bounds after a goal it is a T. It also constitutes a warning should any other delay of game situation happen later in the game.

As Camron said, if ball is on inbounds side it is legal play.

If you're not sure, I'd judge it to be on the legal side of the plane and explain it to the coach that way.
