Team B is awarded a possession throw-in in its frontcourt at one of the four designated spots nearest the violation.

In my most recent situation the ball, not the player, touches the division line.

I think that's Situation 10.

Situation 9 is:

SITUATION 9: A1, located in Team A’s frontcourt, passes the ball to A2. The ball strikes the division line and continues to A2, who is also in the frontcourt, without being touched by an opponent. RULING: Backcourt violation. COMMENT: The ball was in team control in the frontcourt and went to the backcourt when it contacted the division line and first touched by Team A. Since the violation occurred in Team A’s frontcourt, Team B is awarded a possession throw-in in its backcourt at the spot nearest the violation. (9-9-1, 9-9 PENALTY)

I can't wait to tell IAABO to put SITUATION 8 in their pipe and smoke it.
