BC Violation

[jdw3018]

The first thing you have to determine is if, after the try, any player from Team A had player control in the front court. If it's really just tapping the ball, then you can't have backcourt.

I had an example last night, however, of a player who jumped for a rebound, controlled the ball with one hand and attempted to pass it to a guard. The ball was high, went into the backcourt, and T got the BC violation correct.

The key was that control was established. Once you've determined that, then you have to apply the last to touch in the FC, first to touch after the ball has gone BC principle.

But, again, if player control is never established after a try (of any kind - one that hits the rim, hits the board, is an air ball - none of that matters) then you can't have a BC violation.
