Thought this was pretty clear, but after reading this thread, some of the wording made it appear that as soon as the ball bounced in BC it was already a BC-violation. Had to ask.
The offensive team must be the first to touch the ball after it went into the BC in order for a violation to occur.

Let me ask you a follow up question:

Where do you administer the throw-in on a BC violation?
