The NFHS stopped using the terms "forecourt" and "midcourt" back in the twentieth century.

In fact, we may be some of the few alive to remember such.

Remember "Lack of action"?

Remember "Play ball!".

Remember a new closely guarding count for dribblers (sixteen seconds of legal closely guarded, hold, dribble, dribble across midcourt line, hold)?

But in essence, what Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. was "trying" to say is true.

7-5-4: This change provides a clearer, more consistent method for determining the throw-in location after a stoppage of play in the frontcourt when the ball has not gone out of bounds.

Silly NFHS, everybody must be in "vacation mode".

BillyMac:

I have no idea why I used the word Forecourt!

I will edit the comment immediately,

MTD, Sr.
