Help a bunch of coaches with a question on inbounding

[coachgbert]

I was going to try to search because so many good answers have appeared here before, but maybe one (or more) of you could help with a question on our coaching site. As soon as I read it I knew there would be a billion different interpretations because no one knows the rules.

I was going to comment, but thought it might be better if I had an official version with the rules reference and interpretation that coaches will understand. The answers have ranged from "you have a 3 foot spot" to "you can only pivot when the ref says spot, no lifting or moving feet allowed" and also "you can only run the baseline after a made shot"

Thanks everyone. Here is the question:

"Coaches/refs/anyone who knows, what is the exact rule on when the inbounder must remain stationary versus when the inbounder can run the baseline? The only thing anyone has told me is "If the ref hands the girl the ball, she must inbound from that spot; if the girl retrieves the ball and the ref does not hand it to her, she can run the baseline." Is that correct?

Also, I've seen several inbound plays having the inbounder pass to a teammate out of bounds on the other side of the baseline, and then that teammate inbounds. How do the rules affect that scenario?

Can the second inbounder pass back to the first inbounder again while they are both still out of bounds? Can the second inbounder INbound to the first inbounder (assuming of course the first inbounder has then stepped inbounds)? I thought there was a rule about not touching the ball immediately after being out of bounds, but I may be confusing that with football or something else. "

Thanks again everyone.
