Backcourt?

I disagree. (9-9-2)

In the OP, the ball had front court status when the bat/pass was made and the dribble ended. Team control, last to touch, first to touch... I think I've got a violation.

Are you sure? Are you saying that if A1 has 2 feet in the backcourt and dribbling the ball in the frontcourt, that the ball has frontcourt status?

That's not how I read 4-4-1.
