Backcourt?

According to the wording of the rule, it is.

[OKREF]

9.9.1 C

A1 dribbling in backcourt passes to frontcourt and A2 touches or deflects it back to backcourt where A2 recovers.

Ruling is backcourt.

This says that when A2 touched it in the frontcourt, even though they didn't "posses" the ball, that touching constituted player control, and this is a backcourt. But in the OP, it is a throw in and since there is no player control during a throw in I would say it isn't a backcourt.

A1's dribbling constituted PC, not A2's touch in the FC.

Yes, there is. Note that they removed "inbounds" from 4-12-1 a couple of years ago.

(It doesn't change your ruling, though.)

I'm thinking either 10-11 or 11-12.

Still, as you say, doesnt change the ruling, right? Am I correct, and we all agree (well that might be taking it too far) that this play is NOT a backcourt v?

You're correct. Under no circumstances is the scenario in your OP a backcourt violation. Case closed.
