The restraining line you imposed would be 3 feet inside the boundary line and it becomes the boundary line DURING A THROW-IN ON THAT END OR SIDE OF THE COURT. Thus, B1 should not be allowed to come any closer than 3 feet to the permanent boundary line. And A1 can be anywhere behind the imposed restraining line as long as they stay on or over the designated spot, if it indeed was a designated spot throw-in.
