That wasn't the call, coach
The other night, blue takes a shot. It hits the rim and blue tips it about the three point line. It launches into the backcourt, I hear the coach behind me, "It's ok, we didn't have possession, we can get it." As soon as blue catches the rebound in the BC, far side from the table, my partner blows her whistle.

Coach looks at me: "But we never had possession."
Me: "You're right, coach. But she was out of bounds."
Coach just smiles.

Nice. It's great when a coach can realize when they make a mistake with us.

How did you know she was out of bounds? Were you ball-watching? Watching the wrong lines?

Partner pointed to the line when she blew her whistle.

How do you know she wasn't pointing at a wet spot on the floor?

Are you saying that because it was a girls game?

I think we had that post once.
