Backcourt

A1 is bringing the ball up in A's backcourt. A1 passes to A2. B1 tips the pass (A1's backcourt/B1's frontcourt). B2 gets control over the ball in A's frontcourt/B's backcourt. Is this backcourt on B?

No.

B1's tipping of the ball is not considered Team B possession. Therefore, when B2 recovers in her backcourt, there is no over-and-back violation. B2's recovery is the act that removes A's team possession and assigns team control to Team B.

Just to add to your post - even if B had caught (possessed) the ball while in the air after leaving from his front court and landed in his backcourt, it would not have been backcourt.

Yes, this is the act that is covered by the exception to the backcourt rule.

And if B1 catches the ball in the air and passes to B2, who is in his BC, it is a violation.
