Where to take the ball out.

Exactly. If it's close, put it on the endline. Coaches have tons of plays designed for endline throw-ins. Do it both ways and coaches won't complain.

Strange phrasing. Seems that if the crew does it both ways the coaches would be confused and complain.
Do you mean to do it one way and be consistent on both ends of the court throughout the game?

Duh.

Do "it" (put the ball on the endline if it's close) "both ways" (be consistent) and coaches won't complain.

Much the same as a 3 second lane violation......one foot in the lane = player location. Coach should always ask for inbounding spot if he does'nt he ar or see us point.

Amusing, to me "do it both ways" seemed to indicate putting the throw-in on the sideline sometimes and the endline sometimes, which is why I commented, "strange phrasing."

The whole point of where is the ball (in or outside of the arc)and where to administer,is if the ball is awarded baseline instead of sideline then possibly the offense has just had major advancement down the floor for free because of us.

If it's that close you can't decide, put it on the end line. How is that "major advancement because of us?"

Yes, Partner granted timeout from the T. He told me it was underneath.

Yes I took the ball to the OOB spot. This is when the Coach objected.

One would think so. However on the next play the other team requested a timeout with the ball on the wing very close to the diagonal line. My partner, who was once again the T due to a foul that possession, ruled the ball to be underneath. Coach, who was now on offense, complained it should have been on the side.

Some people will argue anything.

It wasn't that clear to me, but in hind sight....

That said, yes they will.
