Since you said you bid the psych against inexperience players. This is directly from the ACBL website: Unsportsmanlike Psychic Bidding — Action apparently designed to give the opponents an abnormal opportunity to get a good score, psychs against pairs or teams in contention, psychs against inexperienced players and psychs used merely to create action at the table are examples of unsportsmanlike psychic bidding. Many directors would have called you out for stating a strong NT bid and passing on 2♣.

This is a why it's important to ask the range if opp doesn't say it. If opp asked the range and your P responds 15-17 he would know 2♣ is stayman. if he asked the range, you would have had to be truthful and say it was a weak NT. or at the beginning of the hand, you should notify that you play weak NT openings. If i called the director and said your P didn't state the NT range and it wasn't standard 15-18 or so, yes, the director is totally in the right to deny your bid and penalize you somehow.
