Beginning the 4th quarter, the arrow is pointed to Red.
Red throws in the ball and immediately get ties up. (2 seconds? gone.)
White arrow on the held ball. White ball.
4 minutes later... "held ball".
Puzzled Ref goes to table and tells them the arrow is wrong because it was Red all at the quarter and there were no other held balls.
Table looks puzzled ???
Ball is given to White.
White wins in OT by three.

How do we prevent this?

A good rule of thumb to help yourself in this situation is to carry something on your body that you use to let yourself know the direction of the arrow. It can be your spare whistle being moved from pocket to pocket or even a rubber band being moved from wrist to wrist (though some may frown as to why you are wearing jewelry and the players can't).
