Question

I was talking to a friend of mine (yes, I do have friends) who is a ref and we tried to top each other with what we think is the weirdest call we've ever seen. My entry was this:

I was waiting to do my game so I was watching a JV level boys game. A1 was holding the ball and was falling OOB. He threw the ball off B1's foot but the ball stayed inbounds. The official blew his whistle and called a kicked ball. OK - this happens sometimes.

He gave the ball to team A for a throw-in. His partner was extremely inexperienced and said nothing. After the game, I asked the calling official about the call. He said he ruled it a kick. I said a kick must be an intentional act and B1's foot never moved.

(I hope you're sitting down for this)

He said A1 intentionally threw the ball off B1's foot and that made it a kick!

I'm still in shock.
