I am an intramural supervisor at a University and we play by high school rules. Well, tonight we were completing our official's training for our basketball league and the backboard rules came up in discussion.
I know that on a Rect. Backboard that the top and the sides are in (as well as the front of the board) and that the back of the board is out. Is the bottom in or out of play? We attempted to find the rules but they have eluded 6 of us in the rule book, could you give the notation please. Thank you all!

All sides are in play!
Rule 7.1.2
The ball is OOB when it touches:
a.A player who is OOB
b.Any other person, the floor, or any object on or outside the boundary
c.The supports or back of the backboard
d.The ceiling, overhead equipment or supports
