The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.
A-1 is dribbling the ball in frontcourt when the ball gets loose. The ball deflects off an official and goes into the backcourt where it is recovered by A-2.
Handle the situation.
This is a backcourt violation. The official is considered to be part of the floor. A-1 was the last to touch the ball in frontcourt and his teammate A-2 was the first to touch the ball after it went into the backcourt.

Very Interesting Play. Correct, the ball went of the Official (part of the court). Therefore A-1 caused the
ball to go in the Backcourt. Thanks!
