Back Court or Not??

[Sco53]

4-4-2 " A ball which is in contact with a player or with the court is in the frontcourt if neither the ball or the player is touching the backcourt."

Backcourt

Yes, the existence of player control in the FC is the question

Rule 9.9.1 (NFHS) (the others shouldn't apply)
"A player shall not be the first to touch the ball after it has been in player and team control in the frontcourt, if he/she or a teammate last touched or was touched by the ball in the frontcourt before it went to the backcourt."

APG's parenthetical indicated player control is perhaps limited to a throw. But this language is not supported by this rule, by other rules perhaps?

I think its a back court violation but can't reconcile that belief against the Player and Team control requirement in the rule.
