Ft, "t"
I called a foul on a player, 2 shots, I went to the table to report it. As I am doing so, the coach of the offending team, asks for an explanation.
Players line up and my partner begins the first FT. I explain to the coach that his player hit the arm of the shooter. Coach says, " I demand an explanation" I say, " I just gave you the explanation"
I turn to see the shooter begin his shooting motion and the coach yells " That's a bunch of crap" I turn to the coach blow my whistle and "T" him up, turn back and see the FT in the air. Shot misses, but since I blew as the kid was beginning his motion, I called the shot off and gave him 2 again.
Yes, I should have held my whistle until after the first FT, but emotion got the best of me.
Should I have give the FT shooter the first shot over again? I don't believe that the ball had left his hand when I blew.
