Point of Interruption

[PIAA REF]

We probably have discussed this on here before, but please share your thoughts again.

A1 is dribbling ball in front court, B1 knocks ball away from A1. Ball is bouncing loose on court. While trying to retrieve ball A1 and B1 are whistled for a double foul. Who gets the ball?

A because they still have team control?
A or B depending on AP aarow.

If your answer is go to aarow please tell me where to find that.
It seems like we should but can't find it in rule book.

On a double foul, play is resumed with a throw-in to the team that was in control at a spot nearest to where the ball was located when the interruption occurred.

As a general statement, that's not correct. You might not have a throw-in after a double foul.

The rule is that after a double foul you go to the point of interruption. That's:

1. a throw-in for the team in control, OR
2. a free throw or throw-in if they were interrupted, OR
3. an AP arrow throw-in

You cited the correct rule, just gave a potentially misleading summary of it.

Agree. My post referred to the OP as there was team control.
