He had already reported the foul...but he consulted with the other official, I guess to confirm that my guys were the only guys. And then he said he had an inadvertent whistle, took the foul away and gave us the ball. I considered it a victory for me..but I wasn't sure he could do that. To say the least, the other coach wasn't very happy.

Similar thing happened to me this year. V team has two different colored jerseys, red and gray. V's big girl goes right through the girl in front of her to get the rebound. I hit the whistle and close on the play only to discover that the girl in front of her was her teammate in a gray jersey.

Dangit!

Called it an inadvertent whistle and went with the AP since we weren't sure V had actually controlled the rebound before the whistle.

Inadvertent Whistle ...
 
I've called two teammate on teammate fouls, both involving rebounding action, in twenty-eight years. Hopefully I can complete my officiating career without calling another.
