It's your own fault. Don't blame us.

Oh, and let me guess, "Don't we get a warning first?"

I had to call this earlier this year. Whenever the player throwing the ball in is being "guarded" I always say "Don't reach across" and indicate the plane. When I called the T the kid asked why he didn't get a warning. Before I went to report it I said "What do you thing don't reach across was?" That really confused him.

Me: "Yes, if I somehow whistle after you violate the plane and before you contact the ball and you stop after hearing the whistle but before you contact the ball then you get a warning."

Kid: "Ok."

Nah, I explained it to the coach and he didn't say a word other than asking where the new throw-in would be. Later on in the same game the same player committed a DOG violation on a sideline throw-in right in front of the table (called by my partner). It was late in the game and they were getting blown out, so I didn't have the heart to come over and bring up the fact that it should be a Team Technical.

I did 3 games AAU games yesterday, and all the coaches were great.

He has the NBA style jump ball signal down pat. Didn't see anything else.

At least you are running in the right circles!!
Maybe we can encourage him to join us here on the forum. Lord knows he has been tangentially influenced greatly over the years by info originating here.
