Yet another backcourt sitch

however if one reads 4-4-1 closely the ball actually needs to be touching the floor or a player in the back court to have status in the backcourt.

The real question is when A1 passes the ball and it touches in the backcourt, does this give it back court status???

Is this a trick question? When the ball touches the backcourt (when the pass bounces off the floor), it's touching the floor, thereby giving it backcourt status.
