Another wrong team question

[Chris Whitten]

A/P throw in for Team A. Official mistakenly allows B1 to step out for the throw-in and he completes the throw-in to B2. Anything preventing switching the arrow to B?

[crosscountry55]

If the officials recognize that the error occurred after the throw-in ended, then it's too late to make a correction. The arrow should remain with Team A and it should have the next opportunity to make an AP throw-in.

See case 6.4.1 Situation D(a), which isn't exactly the same but uses the same logic sequence.

Yes. A riot, and several technical fouls. Possibly a forfeited game. Plus, a lot of ejection reports that the referee has to file with the state office. Possibly, a keyed car, and a few slashed tires, in the parking lot. No cold bottled water after the game. Don't expect the showers to have any hot water. No Christmas card from the coach next season. Probably not getting that coach's vote for the state tournament. At least you won't be going back there anymore in this lifetime.

First, we want to apply:

NHFS Casebook Play 6.4.1 Situation D(a): It is Team B's turn for the next throw-in under the alternation possession procedure. By mistake, Team A is given that throw-in. Team A commits a throw-in violation. RULING: Once the throw-in ends it is too late to change anything. The throw-in ends when Team A violates and results in a throw-in for Team B as well as the arrow for the next alternating possession.


Therefore, in the OP, the AP Throw-in ended when it was legally touched by B2. But Team A will retain the AP Arrow. And you can tell Team A's HC that his team is going to get two of the next three AP Arrows.

And Billy is probably correct. LOL!

There is something to be said to putting the Ball back into play with a Jump Ball, .

P.S. The Caseball Play had Teams A and B reversed from the OP and I switched them around in my mind while composing my OP.

mark, the case play you cited does not support the ruling you typed below it.

DOH!! I was watching TV and eating dinner with the Better Half and didn't pay attention to the fact the Teams A and B were the opposite in the Casebook Play from the OP. I corrected my OP.

Not correct according to an NFHS ruling which states that a team should not be awarded consecutive AP throw-ins if the officials are aware of it. However, I can't seem to locate that ruling at this time!

When the ball is legally touched inbounds isn't the arrow required to be switched? I agree it is logical that a team is not allowed consecutive A/P throws in, but where may I find that reference?
