You cannot have a backcourt violation, without front court status being established. You have to have Team Control or Player Control before the ball can be set in the frontcourt by rule. And during a throw-in, neither can be present until someone grabs and takes control of the ball. Obviously there are no three points if the ball is thrown from the FC to the BC, because during a throw-in the ball is not by rule in the FC.

Jeff,
Thanks for your response. My question was in regard to firedoc's assertion: "Once she obtains possession straddling the division line, if she raises the foot in the backcourt she then has frontcourt status. If she then replaces the foot in the back court...tweet- over-and-back."
In this case it appears that both player and team control have been established in BC. The basis of my question was about whether or not the player had to have all three points in FC to establish FC status. Or, as firedoc asserted, if lifting the foot in BC while the remaining points were in FC was enough to establish FC status.
