Art. 1... A player shall not be the first to touch a ball after it has been in team control in the frontcourt, if he/she or a teammate last touched or was touched by the ball in the frontcourt before it went to the backcourt.

I have put the changes to the text from the previous season in red.
Well, this should eliminate the often criticized Interp concerning A1 throwing a pass from the BC, B1 tipping it while in the FC, and A1 catching the deflection on the fly in the BC.
