1. A1 is dribbling the ball. Ball is poked away by B1. Bounces off of A2 and is going past the division line. A1, in an attempt to save the ball from going into the backcourt, jumps off of his left foot, which is touching the division line, and tips the ball, which never made contact with the floor in the backcourt, back into the frontcourt. Is this a backcourt violation?
It makes no difference whether the ball goes into the BC or not. When A1 touches the ball, he has BC status. Violation.
Not until/unless a member of Team A touches it before a member of Team B.
In the immortal words of the immortal Mark Padgett....WTF?

A1 is the team A member that touched it before a member of team B. Last touched by A2 in the frontcourt--->first touched by A1 who has backcourt status. Pretty straightforward, ain't it?
