Backcourt Violation Trivia #427
This just in:
A1 is dribbling about 8 ft inside his front court. B1 deflects the ball which slowly starts to bounce toward the division line. T withholds deflection signal because the ball does not yet have backcourt status. A1 and B1 both go for the ball. A1 slips and ends up prone on his stomach, bisecting the division line. A1 then reaches to the ball and touches it; the ball never got to the backcourt. What do you have? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Helpful Hint ...
The four elements for having a backcourt violation are: there must be team control (and initial player control
when coming from a throw-in); the ball must have achieved frontcourt status; the team in team control must be the last to touch the ball before it goes into the backcourt; that same team must be the first to touch after the ball has been in the backcourt.

If you wait, then there would be times where this is not communicated but yet they can get it. From the NFHS slide: "A defensive touch signal was added to indicate the ball was touched by the defense prior to going into the backcourt from the frontcourt." Note the word "prior". Was something released to indicate otherwise? I do not recall seeing anything so correct me if I am wrong. OP: BC violation

By NFHS interp, it's a violation. By the rule, and by NCAA (at least NCAAW) interp, it's legal. |

Don't get me wrong... I understand what you're saying, and actually agree, but this is a case where giving the signal before the ball is in the BC can backfire. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

That’s what I thought when I called the violation. I withheld the signal based on conversations had on this forum, and noted that the simultaneous last to touch and first to touch was just like the controversial interpretation oft discussed here. At this point I’m exhausted about rule versus interp. What I do know is that there was an interp several years ago that the NFHS has doubled down on in the last few years. So.....violation called by yours truly, the rank-and-file official. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

BTW, I wished my words were "..immediately communicate that there was a defensive deflection."
