Backcourt

[runupdown]

A1 shoots air ball that is unsuccesfully rebounded by A2 who forces the ball to the floor sending it on a high bounce OB; A3 attempting to retrieve OB ball with one hand throws the ball into team A's backcourt; A4 is first to touch the ball in the backcourt.

3 Man mechanics, varsity game, 2nd quarter, team A ahead by 15+; T is table side, C is opposite; T makes no call; C makes backcourt call; throw in made at a division line balls in play and coach asks nearest official who is T becoming new L for explanation; new L stops play runs over to ask C for explanation; C explains team control still in the frontcourt despite missed shot; C wants to assess coach a time out; new T says no let's go; we go; half time we deliberate; postgame C pulls out rule 9-9; still unsettled will talk over at next meeting.

But before this next meeting, I humbly ask; what say ye lord's of the game?
