Where do you put the ball in play?

Player A1 is in-bounding the ball at the end line for a throw in. A1 passes the ball directly to A2, who has one foot out of bounds on the side line.

Where do you put the ball in play (A1 or A2 location) and why?

A2 location. A1 did not commit a throw-in violation. A2 committed an OOB violation.

Many years ago (probably over thirty years ago), this would have been a throwin violation by A1 if the ball first touched A2, or B2, while either was out of bounds, and the ball would go back to Team B at the original throwin spot.

The fact that this interpretation still has life baffles me. I figured that most of those that remembered the old rule were dead by now.

Am I right Mark T. DeNucci, Sr.?
