ddcrfreeBack court--Team Control ?? Video at end of Post
ART. 1 . . . A player must not be the first to touch the ball after it has been in 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.
Team control exists:
When a player of the team is in control (a player is in control when holding or dribbling a live ball).
When a live ball is being passed among teammates.
During an interrupted dribble.
When the ball is at the disposal of a player for a throw-in.
Team control is lost when one of the following occur:
The ball is in flight during a try or tap for goal.
An opponent secures control (must hold or dribble a live ball).
Often the ball status is not immediately clear.
The question for officials to ask themselves is:
Did the opponent secure control or start dribbling?
Would you grant that team a timeout prior to the foul?
In reviewing the video, #23 White briefly gained Team Control, what ensued was a free-for-all, and the "Last to Touch, First to Touch" does not apply as Red did not regain Team Control. This was not a Back Court violation on Red.
