AP question
I know I'm missing something, but here's the scenario.
AP throwin for A. Legal held ball between thrower and B1. Who gets the ball? Arrow switches when the throwin ends, which happens when ball is legally touched on the playing court. This tells me it should be B's ball, but the devil on my shoulder keeps telling me it should stay with A. What am I missing, 'cause if the devil on my shoulder is right, then that's a precedent I'd love to go forward with. |
that little devil on your shoulder is the coach of A. Ignore him.
SORRY - missed the part that the thrower still had the ball. |
6.4.5 says not to change the arrow and the subsequent throwin will be an AP throwin for A.

This is of course a product of A sticking the ball across the inbounds plane enabling B to legally grab ball (as you mentioned). I await the high council's ruling. |
The throw ends after the ball is touched in bounds, but not if the thrower never releases the ball. The throw in must be released directly into the court, thus since no release, no completed throw in. The arrow is pointing A's direction. They get the ball again for an AP throw in.

Full, your full of it........ 7.6.4 SITUATION F: Thrower A1 inadvertently holds the ball through the end-line plane during a throw-in. B1 is able to get his/her hands on the ball and A1 cannot pull it back. RULING: There is no player or team control during a throw in, therefore a held ball is called, resulting in an alternating-possession throw-in. If the original throw-in is an alternating-possession throw-in, Team A still has the arrow following the held ball. |
