K1 scrimmage kicks from the K 25 yard line. The kick is short and on a dead run to receive the kick R10 muffs it at the K37 yard line. In an attempt to fight for the ball, R45 grabs and twists K32 by the face mask. The ball rolls to the K23 yard line where it is recovered by R45.

Ruling:

Score: A:21 – B:12. Second and 8 from the A6. A10 drops back into the A end zone and passes the ball to the A30 where it is intercepted by B22 who returns it for a touchdown. While the pass is in the air A55 holds B60 in the A end zone.

Ruling:

Score: A:21 – B:12. Second and 8 from the A6. A10 drops back into the A end zone and passes the ball to the A30 where it is intercepted by B22 who returns it for a touchdown. As the pass is intercepted A55 holds B60 in the A end zone

Ruling:
Canadian Amateur Rules:

(1) K1 has broken the continuity of downs (9-4-2e) and R10's touching makes the ball open for recovery. As for the rest, this is textbook 8-5-4c. Apply 15y UR penalty at PF, PP or PBD at K's option.

(2) B can decline the foul to allow the score, as in 8-1-4a. Since you've called A55 for a hold, Cdn officials reading this would assume that A55 is an offensive lineman, because his # is in the 40s, 50s or 60s. That being the case, I wonder what effect a hold has when the ball is already in the air. Looking at the white book, I actually failed to find a rule that allows to penalize a hold that has occured after the ball has been released. JR - what do you think? Do you think that 8-4-1a-1 applies here? If so, then B has choice: safety touch and has option to receive, kick or scrimmage the ball as in 3-3, or to have DR at the A3 (2D/11).

(3) We could have a hold, as B60 now is eligible to block for B22. Same as above.
