Rookie Official Questions:
1)Regarding backcourt violations:
If Team A has established front court status with the ball (ball and both feet in the front court), is it a backcourt violation for the player with the ball to put just a toe on the center line?
Also- if Team A has the ball with frontcourt status, shoots, the ball hits the rim, and then team A gets the rebound and promptly throws the ball into backcourt (with or without it being touched by a defender)is this a backcourt violation?
2)Sometimes I find myself anticipating a call and begining to raise my arm for a foul only to drop it quickly when the player scores the basket. Assuming there was no foul, am I correct in just ignoring my hand raise and acting as if it never happened?
Thanks

1. Center line is part of the backcourt so the answer is yes.
1. Also- If A controls the ball then we have a BC violation.
2.
No whistle, play on. You might have some more observant coaches asking what happened though.
