Yes, it was 2-man.

Well, in 2-man it is usually the Trail's call to make, but it's one of those that either can call if we see it.

Don't worry about the coach not knowing the rules. All you can do is give a quick explanation.

Finally, for clarification: was this a throw-in pass that A catches, or was the throw-in complete and they now had team control? If it's the former, then it is no longer a violation.

I know about the coach. It was just funny that he thought we shouldn't have called it even though it's a violation simply because "No one ever calls that".

It was not a throw-in, hence the reason I said in the OP that the throw-in was completed.
