Always Know Which Foot Is The Pivot Foot ...

Not yet. Remember there's no team control on a throwin. But, as an official, this is a violation begging to occur, so you have to be ready, and observant. If A1 starts pivoting, using the foot in the front court as the pivot foot, and moves the nonpivot foot from the backcourt, into the frontcourt, and then, back into the backcourt, then you have a backcourt violation. On the other hand, if A1 uses the backcourt foot as the pivot foot, then he is allowed to move the nonpivot foot from the frontcourt, into the backcourt, back and forth across the division line, with no violation occurring.
