I'm a ref for a local Upward Basketball league, and really enjoy it. Maybe someday I'll get into refing "real" games like you guys.

I've got a question about something that happened last season. Player from team A throws the ball in. A player on team B hits the ball out of bounds. Throw-in player from team A catches it. She's still out of bounds.

Who's ball is it?

If player A2, while standing out of bounds, caught the ball before it hit anything that is out of bounds, then A2 caused the ball to be out of bounds and it will be a throw-in for team B.

Not that it changes your answer, but there is no A2 player. The same player who inbounds, catches it after a player on team B hits it. Basically, a blocked inbound pass.

I wasn't sure if the A player was considered OOB, so A should get it back since the B player was the last to touch it.

Can't remember how I called it...

Rule 7 Out of Bounds and the Throw-in

SECTION 1 OUT-OF-BOUNDS — PLAYER, BALL

ART. 1 . . . A player is out of bounds when he/she touches the floor, or any object other than a player, on or outside a boundary. For location of a player in the air, see 4-35.

ART. 2 . . . The ball is out of bounds when it touches:

a. A player who is out of bounds.
b. Any other person, the floor, or any object on or outside a boundary.
c. The supports or back of the backboard.
d. The ceiling, overhead equipment or supports.

NOTE: When the rectangular backboard is used, the ball is out of bounds if it passes over the backboard.


SECTION 2 CAUSING THE BALL TO GO OUT OF BOUNDS -

INDIVIDUAL PLAYER

ART. 1 . . . The ball is caused to go out of bounds by the last player in bounds to touch it or be touched by it, unless the ball touches a player who is out of bounds prior to touching something out of bounds other than a player.

ART. 2 . . . If the ball is out of bounds because of touching or being touched by a player who is on or outside a boundary line, such player causes it to go out.
