What is a kid is fouled while in the act of shooting in the wrong basket. Assuming a kid from the other team was confused as well. Would it be a shooting foul?

Where do you guys get a technical foul from? I don't remember that rule at all. If a fan interferes with the game, we stop the game, get with game management and have the fan tossed out. Play resumes from the point of interruption with the team in possession retaining the ball.

You can call a Tech on the bench which includes coaches, players, support staffers, admin if they are on or near the bench area. I have thrown people off the scorers table but you can T them up either

Shots on the wrong basket aren't considered shooting acts, so A5 couldn't get free throws.

I don't know that it's right, but I played many a high school basketball games in some very hostile gymnasiums, and when the fans would go a little crazy, i.e. throw stuff on the floor, follow the ref up and down the court cursing him, run on to the floor etc. they would call a technical foul.

I can understand shooting in the wrong basket at 6, 7, 8 years old, but not in high school.

Happened to a guy my freshman year in high school. Tip-off, ball bounces off a teammate, he gets possession and proceeds to dribble the wrong way. Everybody yelling at him, he doesn't hear. All he sees is empty space between him and the basket. He throws down this monstrous arse two handed dunk and starts beating his chest and yelling LET'S GO!. Dummy finally realized what he did about 10 seconds later. Called him Wrong Way the rest of the year.
