On a back court violation, where is the ball spotted at.
My partner said it is brought back to the mid court, I thought it was at the spot of the violation.

Thanks
Jeff

Mid court, front court.

The throw-in spot is nearest to where the violation occurred, meaning where the ball is touched.

Check out R9-9PENALTY. Designated spot nearest the violation.

If the violation occured because they stepped on the mid-court line then always have the throw in in the front court.

Huh? What does that mean? Mid court is not front court, it is mid court, meaning at the division line.

Besides, your answer is wrong anyway.

Had one last week where team A got called for this, but they followed the ball all the way to the end line before touching it. B got the ball out underneath their own hoop. I expected some complaints (middle school game) but got nothing.

I was told by an evaluator that if you call a backcourt violation because the guy with the ball stepped on the centre line, make it clear that the throw in will be in the front court. i.e. make sure the designated spot is clearly on the front court side of the line.

I'm not sure if that makes that much sense the way I worded it, but it makes more sense then the last post.

Did the evaluator tell you "why"? It's a "backcourt" violation, not a "frontcourt" violation.

Go with what your evaluator/supervisor/assignor tells you to do, but a frontcourt throw-in is at the incorrect spot.

Remember - the throw-in is at the designated OOB spot closest to the violation not the spot of the ball when the violation was committed.

Just incase this wasn't clear I was referring to the old backcourt which is the new frontcourt.

Still wondering "why"? If the player violated by stepping on the center line, what difference does it really make if the player making the throw-in is now straddling the center line? That's the closest spot. Is there a reason for that mechanic?

You're right... I've always been told that the throw-in spot was at the middle of the court, both feet in front court. But I never really checked it in a rulebook...

I won't do it again, I promise! ;)

I don't know, I didn't ask, I'm a good kid, I do what I'm told.
