This happened numerous times in a recent game where the GD was blocking the GA up the court and the GA left the court and tried to return from the back line under the post. The GA was insisting that the GD was "marking off court" and on a couple of occasions the umpire called this and awarded a penalty to GA under the post? The GD was on court at all time whilst marking.
You can legally mark a player off court and keep them off court, however u have to let them back on court where they left the court. You can block them off court but must allow them back on court where they left. However, some umpires do not follow this rule. Hope this helps

you can legally do this as long as the defender is on court at all times. however if someone is taking a penalty pass off court you must let them back on where the penalty is being taken.
Hi Libby. This same question was asked answered recently and the various scenarios & relevant rules regarding an out of court player were discussed. Leanne has answered correctly.
The rule is the player only has to be let back on where they went off if they went off for a legitimate reason, ie to collect a loose ball. If they went off to get a better court position the defender does NOT have to let them back on, even where they went off. The problem is that often the defender gets a little carried away and part of their foot sneaks out of court then the umpire will rightly call marking out of court.
