For a back court violation, a Team A player must be the first to touch "in the back court." A Team A player can only be "in the back court" if any of A1's three points are in the back court.

In any event, always thinking about the three points is something that helps me figure out back court and front court status, especially at the division line.
Please let me know it this way of thinking is going to get me in trouble some time.
Thanks.

Nice, except it is not correct. There are many situations where it just doesn't work. Think of it with the correct principles and you'll be better off.
