I have, and it's not a difficult question. That ball can sit on the division line untouched for a ten seconds and not be a violation.

It only becomes a backcourt violation when it's touched by A1 who is fully standing in his frontcourt.

Once decided that it's a backcourt violation, lets look at the penalty:

9-9 Backcourt Penalty: The opponent is awarded a possession throwin its frontcourt at one of the four designated spots nearest the violation.

It's the only penalty listed for backcourt violations.

Is that the correct penalty for this specific situation?
