You'll find it in rule 9.

Who You Gonna Call ???



During a throwin, or jump ball, any player; or a defensive player, in making a steal; may legally jump from his or her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor, and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or the backcourt. These three situations are not backcourt violations.

And unless you work in an IAABO area/state...

I'd stay away from the phrase "over and back," and try to just use rule book terminology when discussing this type of play/possible violation.

Why? This one accurately describes the situation....unlike over-the-back. I don't think I know of a single official that says anything other than over-and-back.

Huh. Maybe this is a just me thing, then. I think it's an antiquated term that sounds very junior-high-official. It's not always an accurate term for what that violation is, it's not listed in the rule or case books to my knowledge (NFHS or NCAA), and the only place I know it exists is in the...wait for it...(sarcasm on) my favorite book of all time: the IAABO Officials' Manual, and only in the signal chart.

I personally say "backcourt" or "backcourt violation" while making the signal.

Me. My call is always, "Backcourt", and has been for thirty-three years.
