I was told by an evaluator that if you call a backcourt violation because the guy with the ball stepped on the centre line, make it clear that the throw in will be in the front court. i.e. make sure the designated spot is clearly on the front court side of the line.

Did the evaluator tell you "why"? It's a "backcourt" violation, not a "frontcourt" violation.

Just incase this wasn't clear I was referring to the old backcourt which is the new frontcourt.

Still wondering "why"? If the player violated by stepping on the center line, what difference does it really make if the player making the throw-in is now straddling the center line? That's the closest spot. Is there a reason for that mechanic?
