The throw-in play I am thinking of is: A2 catches A1's throw-in pass while airborne jumping from Team A's Front Court. A2, before returning to the playing surface, passes the ball to A3 who is standing in Team A's Backcourt.

I do believe that the NFHS ruling is different from the NCAA ruling.

If I recall previous discussions on this forum, you are correct. For that particular situation: NFHS = violation, NCAA = no violation.

Adam and NevadaRef:

See what happens when you get "old"? You have too much information to process. LOL

Thanks for confirmation. That was the play I was thinking of when I originally posted about a NFHS/NCAA difference in the OP of this thread.

Illegal on NCAA Men's side.

How is this legal in NCAA-W, then? The BC rules are exactly the same between M and W, to my knowledge.

Maybe I lost track of this post.

It is illegal for airborne front court player A1 to catch the throw in and pass it to his teammate A2 who is standing in the back court.

That is a violation.

There used to be (iirc) an AR to that effect in NCAA.

I don't see it in the current book.

To keep the game in the front court.

In the days before a shot clock, the team with the ball would have had a much easier time running out the clock if they had the entire court to work with. Imagine 4-corners being played with the entire court. The defense wouldn't have had much of a change to steal the ball.

I know am responding late to this particular post, but HawkeyeCubP, I can only guess that you are not married, 😛.

It long precedes the shot clock as a way of preventing a team from using the full court to endlessly stall and giving the defense a fair chance to force a turnover.
