In high school (USA), the rule is that as long as a player has established position in bounds, he may touch the ball. There is no rule regarding being the "first to touch."
Establishing position requires only that a player be touching the floor in bounds, and having no part of him touching out of bounds. IOW, one foot down "in" and the other foot in the air is ok.
