A question came up this weekend. Trail calls a 10 second backcourt violation when A1 is dribbling the ball on the front court while standing in the backcourt. NCAA rules. Was he correct? The ball is clearly in the front court, but the dribbler does not have front court status.

If you were to argue that it wasn't a 10 second violation since the ball was being dribbled in the frontcourt, it would have to be a backcourt violation (over and back) on the very first dribble that touched the frontcourt. The ball would be in the frontcourt on the dribble, but the player would be in the backcourt when the ball came back up for the next dribble. This would occur on just about every possession that the ball is dribbled up the court. Of course, this is not the case.
As BktBallRef said, a dribbled ball is in the backcourt until both feet of the dribbler and the ball touch entirely in the froncourt. [Edited by Camron Rust on Oct 15th, 2001 at 01:48 PM] |
