what's the call??
Player A has the ball in the front court. Attempts a pass to her teammate, Player A2. the ball hits the oppossing team player B in the buttocks before reaching her teammate, and travels backcourt where the original player A scoops it up?? The call the ref made was nothing. He stated that since it touched the opposing team player it wasn't backcourt. Team possession never changed, I thought. What's the call??

You were not very clear, but assuming that the B player was in the FC, you cannot have a violation. B put the ball in the backcourt, not team A. Team control would not be a factor either. Team A never gained control in the FC.

I don'te understand
How can team A never have control?? They dribbled it up to the front court. Isn't dribbling it up to the front court, control??

JR misread your post -- however his answer is still correct -- TEAM A did not cause the ball to go to the backcourt TEAM B did. It doesnt matter what part of TEAM B player ball touches.
However if TEAM A player touches in FC again then ball goes backcourt and is recovered then its a BC violation. Team control does not matter here. |

OK, let's all chime in on the four elements required to have a backcourt violation.
1) there must be team control 2) the ball must have achieved frontcourt status 3) the team in team control must be the last to touch the ball in the frontcourt 4) that same team must be first to touch the ball after it has been in the backcourt If any one of the four elements is not present, you do not have a violation - period. |

BADNEWSREF, you use a qoute from me explaining control, and you tell me I need to get a rule book?? I have one, I use it. Sometimes I want outside opinions of people who are closer to the action. I just found your comment odd considering the qoute you used. that's all.
