Hopefully I can still salvage this, then, but let's go into this a little further. It's a backcourt violoation when:
9.9.1 - A player shall not be the first to touch a ball after it has been in team control in the frontcourt, if he/she or a teammate last touched or was touched by the ball in the frontcourt before it went to the backcourt This seems to jive with the list provided by Mark, including point 3. Just trying to clear this one up is all. Last edited by Rufus; Tue Sep 01, 2009 at 02:52pm. |

Ok, I think I get it how #3 doesn't work in all situations.
The thing I don't understand with 9-9-2, however, is that the ball is considered in the frontcourt only if neither the ball nor the player is touching the backcourt (4-4-2). Why, in 9-9-2 and in Snaqs' example, would the ball suddenly obtain frontcourt status is the player is still located in the backcourt? |

3. The team in team control must have been the last to touch the ball while it had frontcourt status.

Ok, but then can you make the case that it's an interupted dribble? I'm not trying to be argumentative, just trying to make sense of the rule.

That said, you bring up an interesting play. 1. A1 dribbling along the division line with his feet in the BC and the ball bouncing in the FC. 2. He attempts to fake a defender to the left, but the defender has none of it and they both go to the offensive player's right. 3. The ball, however, gets away from the dribbler and drifts to the left. It's now an interrupted dribble and bounces in the FC. 4. The dribbler is quick enough to recover and regain his dribble. However, his back foot is still touching in the BC when he touches the ball. There is no player control during an interrupted dribble, so the 3 point rule is no longer in play and this would be a violation.

That's right.
There's a case play where A1 in teh BC passes th ball to the FC. The ball hits an offical and bounces back to the BC, where A1 is the first to touch. The ball was never touched (by a player) in the FC, yet it's a BC violation. |

A pass is not an interrupted dribble.
