This came from a question from a fellow official.

Any case scenarios pertaining to A1 with possession in the front court, ball slapped by B1 away from A1, touches any part of any A player and then is recovered by any A player in backcourt. Is this a violation?

Any clarification would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

You need player control, and the ball needs to reach the FC. You don't need "PC in the FC".

All the plays you mention are violations.
