team control on throw in in HS question

[26 Year Gap]

I thought the exception was for the same player to retrieve. A1 touches in FC, the A1 can retrieve in BC as first to touch.

Here is the exception that allows the ball to go into the backcourt under NCAA rules:

Rule 7, Section 6

Art. 8. Regardless of where the throw-in spot is located, the throw-in team may cause the ball to go into the back court.
Art. 9. After the throw-in ends, an inbounds player in the front court who is not in control of the ball may cause the ball to go into the back court.

In Fed? I thought A1 would be the ONLY one who could be first to touch in BC under that scenario.

I think we're mixing up two issues...I'm quoting the NCAA rule allowing the ball to be inbounded in the backcourt or fumbled into the backcourt w/o a backcourt violation being called.

I think you're referring to the exception that allows a player to jump from the frontcourt, catch the ball in the air, and land in the frontcourt.

Not quite. If A1 fumbles or deflects the ball on a TI from FC into BC, he can go get it and be first to touch. But, I do not think A2 can go get it if A1 is the buy who caused it to go BC on the TI.

The exception doesn't restrict anyone from getting the ball if it's fumbled in the backcourt. As I understand the rule, it doesn't matter who retrieves the ball in the backcourt.

APG has this one right.

Currently (previously), the rule allowed anyone to retrieve it because TC wasn't established until the ball was held or dribbled by someone. The airborne exception only applies to the player who catches it in the air; if he tips it instead, anyone can retrieve/touch it in the BC without violation.
