Double Foul

[smbbcoach99]

It indeed happen in the paint as the home team had possession of the ball on the wing, below the FT line. I attempted to ask the official if the home team should still have the ball. He barked NO (as I questioned him I guess). Then he restated, possession arrow- and it does not change. I asked about it changing and was told once more- and your gone.

??????? WOW!

Thanks for all your assistance

What level?

8th grade game. But the two officials do JV and Varsity games on a regular basis.

Wow, to mess a rule up like that and to get snippy with a coach?

I'd love to read their side of the story, but we won't likely get that.

The only way I can see they got this correct is if the double foul was called when there wasn't team control. Then they went to the AP. During the AP throw-in, there was a kicking violation or foul. Therefore, the arrow doesn't change.

However, given the information... I doubt this is what happened. Sounds like they might have got it wrong.

Or, there was TC and the arrow was in the direction of the team with TC. The OP thought that the throw-in was for the arrow (perhaps because someone may have mistakenly indicated to use the arrow). Then, when the OP asked about changing it, s/he was correctly told "no"
