backboard
Is it a violation if the ball goes over the backboard, in either direction?

Yes. Absolutely. Always. Except, of course, for that backboard. 'Cuz it's fan shaped. And it's not a violation for the ball to pass over the top of a fan shaped backboard. But absolutely always for rectangular ones.

Does anybody still see the fan-shaped backboards any more outside of church/rrec league? I can't think of a game in 20 years that I've seen one.

Does anyone outside of centkyref still make virtually identical consecutive posts? I can't think of seeing any in the past 20 years, at least.

Also - what's the difference between a rrec league and a rec league?

Depends on the type of backboard: Legal if it's fan-shaped; illegal if it rectangular.
