ok not rules book interpretation here but real life what do we do..... While it is a double violation if caught while the shooter has the ball, I would be more inclined to "not see it" until the shot was over, because the laws of preventive officiating say I should have seen that way earlier, and since I didn't, don't punish the shooter by taking a shot away.....I don't think kids do this on purpose (usually) and therefore I think what Chuck said earlier, line em up right for the 2nd shot and go....

Mmmmmmmm....i dunno...blow the whistle, take the ball back, smile & politely get them lined up right & re-administer. If a coach wants to be a knucklehead about it just tell him you got something in your eye, or you thought you saw something on the ball, or on the floor, or you had a fainting spell, or a flashback, or you thought you noticed a light bulb that needed changing...or something.
