That's not the best way to word it. The rule is Team A can't be both the last to touch before it went into backcourt, and the first to touch after it was in the backcourt. So if A1 is in front court, and bounces the ball along the division line, and it hits the floor in the back court, A1 was the last person to touch before it went into backcourt. Now if A2 is the next to touch and the ball hasn't bounced back in the frontcourt, even if A2's feet are in frontcourt, that's BC. If I'm reading this play correctly, I've got a BC violation.
Juulie,
The only addition I would make would be to say it doesn't matter if the ball bounces back into the front court before being touched by A2. Once they've established FC status and team control, and the ball hits the backcourt (assuming A1 is last to touch before it goes to the backcourt), it will be a violation for A to be the first to touch the ball; even if it bounces all the way to the FC basket.
this play is a violation.
Really? Wow. I wonder how to explain that to the coach.

It's me staying up tonight after a great game. What a blast. It just doesn't get much better than this, I'll tell ya. First in the league against second in the league, both undefeated. The band, the cheerleaders, the crowds, coaches both intent on winning. A great partner, and we worked well together, just plain fun from start to finish.
