Over & back

[bbman]

Play:
Everyone's position is in white's front court. White has position of ball in the paint, she tries to pass the ball to to teammate at the top of the key. But Red jumps up, tips the pass, then the ball tips the hand of white, then goes to backcourt where white retrieves it.
Back court or not?

NFHS: Backcourt violation. White had team control in FC and was last to touch before it went to BC.

Note: Didn’t they change this in NCAA a few years back?

In NCAA-M this is not a violation since player control was not regained in the frontcourt after the touch by the defense.

Violation in NCAAW.

If someone can post NBA and FIBA, we'll have it covered.

If I recall right, in the NBA... when opponent hits ball,it’s now a loose ball play and white can recover without penalty...

Agree.

The four elements for having a backcourt violation are: there must be team control (and initial player control when coming from a throwin); 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.

The NFHS played around with this the past few years with rule language, interpretations, and points of emphasis, leading some to mistakenly believe that the NFHS was going down the path of the NCAA, but ultimately it stayed the same.
