Except for one case, you must be holding te ball to travel. Don't have my books with me but it's in the case book....A1 gains control of the ball while sitting on the floor, A1 places ball on the floor beside them, A1 stands up, A1 picks up the ball......TRAVEL.

The one exception is the final sentence of 4.44.5 Sit B and I've stopped stating it every time that I post about traveling. Now I just say that a player has to be holding the ball.
