inbound on endline, not UT vs. UA

[jophyal]

I am in Austin Area and the reason we were given has already been stated. The player catching bounce/toss is not gauranteed to catch it and there have been cases where officials bounced the ball and started their 5 count before player had opportunity to inbound. Thanks for all your responses... Stay safe.

I ask because I am surprised that they are deviating from the Federation mechanics, which is what we are supposed to use with a few exceptions (this is not one of them). Not a big deal by any stretch but just surprising.

An official starting their count before the ball is at disposal is a rules and mechanics issue and should be addressed separately IMO.

Sounds like a training issue.
