If during a throw-in:

If he catches the ball, he establishes team control. BC if A2 retrieves the ball.

If the ball bounces off his hands, there is no team control, no violation.

If not a throwin and A1 dribbling the ball in FC and passes to A2 who leaps from BC and lands in FC, Violation there though?
If A2 touches the ball before he establishes FC status, violation.
