Team A has the ball in their front court. A1 dribbles the ball off of her foot. The ball is knocked around the front court by both teams for a few seconds. Team B gains posession in their backcourt (A's front court). B1 loses posession. A2 dives for the ball, grabs the ball with both hands to avoid traveling while sliding across the floor, she tosses it and it goes into their backcourt. A3 is the first to touch it.

Back court or no call?
The three classic questions:

Did Team A have control of the ball in their frontcourt?

Was a Team A player last to touch the ball before it went in the backcourt?

Was a Team A player first to touch the ball in the backcourt?

Issue in question seems to be whether A2 had control...

I say yes. Backcourt violation
