Backcourt??

If the player had control of the ball while in the front court and then went into the back I would call a violation. If they tipped it and went into the backcourt to retrieve it then I got nothing.

So if he caught the ball while airborne and then landed in the BC, you have a violation?

No, don't put words in for me. I just didn't include the airborne portion in my post. Scrapper has it 100%.

I didn't put words in your mouth. I just asked you a question. You wrote, "If the player had control of the ball while in the front court and then went into the back I would call a violation." You say nothing about him being airborne or on the floor, so we're just supposed to assume you know the difference?

Agreed you didn't. My apology. Your sarcasm and insinuation that I am a complete dolt who knows nothing about the game or officiating is duely noted. If I have given any indication in previous posts that I deserved this then so be it. I don't post false information or missleading interpretations, and as I noted above did not clarify my OP very well.

Thanks
