Referees: What's the Call?

I thought this would be an interesting referee questions. Player A1 is attempting to throw the ball into play and it slips out of her hand and lands on the field. All of the players are back 10 yards expecting a long throw-in. After the ball lands 3 feet from her she steps onto the field and picks the ball up with the intention of retaking the throw-in. What is the call?

A. Indirect Free Kick because she touches the ball twice before any other player
B. Direct Free Kick because she touched the ball with her hand.

Was she a CPP player?

Well played....

A CPP would never throw the ball in. What a waste of talent. C'MON MAN! That's not development nor what CPP was intended for.

Actually, it depends on if she was a unicorn CPP playing up, or a CPP playing down.

Don't know about the free kick, but in the remaining 49 1/2 states, the player would receive a yellow card.

Really! you're going to Highjack my post with that CCP crap!

Sorry!

1. If you assume the throw in was legal (sounds like a big assumption given the description) then it's a direct free kick.

2. From the description given, it sounds like the ball wasn't thrown from over the head or to be more clear, it sounds like the player throwing, lost control of the ball before it was overhead. Therefore I believe that is not a legal throw in.

3. I think the correct answer is not listed. Throw in for the other team.

I'm not a ref but the LOTG states:

Throw-in taken by a player other than the goalkeeper
If, after the ball is in play, the thrower touches the ball again (except with his
hands) before it has touched another player:
• an indirect free kick is awarded to the opposing team, to be taken from the
place where the infringement occurred (see Law 13 – Position of free kick)
If, after the ball is in play, the thrower deliberately handles the ball before it has
touched another player:
• a direct free kick is awarded to the opposing team, to be taken from the
place where the infringement occurred (see Law 13 – Position of free kick)
• a penalty kick is awarded if the infringement occurred inside the thrower’s
penalty area

So I would say direct kick in this case...

I say direct kick as well. Ball was in play and she handled

This

Found this on instructions to Referee's site.

The thrower shall use both hands (unless because of a physical impairment can only use one hand) and deliver the from behind and over the head in one continuous motion.

Key points here is that the ball must be thrown with both hands (unless a physical impairment exists).
Both hands must be on the ball and come forward with the ball to make the throw.
Watch for throws that are illegally made with one hand rather than both hands.
The throw has to start behind the head, come over the head and then release the ball.

I'll stick with my, not a legal throw.

Throw in for the other team.

Sorry about the description but the throw-in was legal.  But the correct answer is a Direct kick.
Soccernovice although no referee got it correct.  The direct kick ended up as a shot on goal and resulted in a goal.
The opposing coach wanted an indirect kick since it was a double touch by the player.  However, it was the touch with the hands that changes the call of the play.

If, after the ball is in play, the thrower deliberately handles the ball before it has
touched another player:
• a direct free kick is awarded to the opposing team, to be taken from the
place where the infringement occurred (see Law 13 – Position of free kick)
