back court out of bounds violations clarification
according to US HIGHSCHOOL RULES what are the specifics on back court violation....watching an nba game earlier today i am unclear on what is a violation....today i saw A-1 with ball and possession in the front court....as A-2 retreived the ball from A-1 he came from the back court and caught the ball in the front court over the division line.....was this whitled a violation because his established postion came from teh back court into the front court....A-2 clearly caught the ball in mid air between the back court and front court yet at no time possessed the ball in the backcourt with his feet touching the floor....please clarify....
in addition if i save teh ball before my body touches out of bounds....can i be the first to retain the loose ball????? or if im out of bounds can i not be the first to touch the ball....what is the precise ruling for US highschool basketball????
