Player A1 retrieves the ball and is called for a backcourt violation.

The referee explained that even though B1 had touched the ball and knocked it loose - the referee saw the ball touch the leg of A1 after it was knocked loose and prior to going into the back court. Therefore it was a backcout violation.

Is this the correct call?
It is. A1 was the last to touch the ball, which had front court location while Team A was in control, in the frontcourt, and then first to touch it in the backcourt.
Yep, correct call.
