I saw both these in an NCAA DIII game. I believed BOTH to be violations but neither was called.

1) A1 has the ball in the front court. He passes to A2 who was standing with one foot in the back court and one foot one the back court line. A2 jumps and catches the ball in the air, landing with both feet in the front court. Isn't A2 considered a back court player until he actually lands in the front court?
It depends. Which foot was the last to break contact with the floor? If it was the frontcourt foot, then no violation since the last play the player was contacting was the FC.
I think that you may have read that one in too big of a hurry, Camron. A1 had both feet in the backcourt before he jumped, not a foot on either side. Violation.
