I got to looking after I agreed with rockyroad...and found in the NF Rule Book, 9-9-3, that there is indeed some wording just as you already had stated.
"The Player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or backcourt."
BTW, this applies to defensive player or during a jump ball or throw-in.

And I don't believe there is an exemption for this in FIBA for jump balls, Which would explain the really strange backcourt calls I've seen in my league games. Can any FIBA experts confirm this? How about the original situation listed in this thread under FIBA rules?
