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 attempting to make a throw-in from the sideline.  After A-1 releases the throw-in, B-1 bats the ball into the air.  A-1 catches the ball with one foot touching the floor inbounds and the other foot in the air.

Handle the situation.


This is legal play.  A-1 is considered to be inbounds once any part of A-1 is in contact with inbounds and no part of A-1 is touching out of bounds.
