Quote:
Backcourt. (Rule 9-12.5)
Permits either team to be the first to touch the ball in the backcourt when a pass or any loose ball in the front court is deflected by the defense which causes the ball to go into the backcourt even if the offense was the last to touch the ball in the front court.

Well, it is a rules change. Not just a change in the casebook.
And I cannot stand this rule, because it leaves too much for interpretation. I hope the NF never changes this rule.
