Another backcouirt question

[RefTip]

Player A1 has ball in front court , player B1 slaps ball away , ensuing scrum leaves ball in player B1's posession (still in A's frontcourt ) , just after B1 has posession A2 deflects ball away from B1 to team A's backcourt. Player A3 retrieves ball from the backcourt and is called for backcourt violation.

A fellow parent told me of this and had " commented " to the official about posession and the official commented back that the ball was still in A's posession. I have talked with a fellow official and we have went back and forth,,,,,,,, unfortunately I think the answer is right in front of me and I'm not seeing it.

Thanks

ps At least I'm educating my fellow parents ........... they aren't commenting 3 SECONDS, 3 SECONDS.
