7.1.1 Sit A. A1, while holding the ball inbounds near the sideline, touches (a) player B1; (b) a photographer; (c) a coach; or (d) an official, all of whom are out of bounds. Ruling: A1 is not out of bounds in (a), (b), (c), or (d). To be out of bounds, A1 must touch the floor or some object on or outside a boundary line. People are not considered to be objects and play continues. Inadvertently touching someone who is out of bounds, without gaining an advantage, is not considered a violation. (NFHS)
