CANADIAN RULING:
[Assumption] A safety was scored, and the team kicking off committed a dead ball foul after the score and before the KO. In our game, A's KO is from the 35, and the 20 after a DBPF.[/Assumption]
There are two fouls on the play:
- A1 touching the ball is a flag for touching the ball before it went 10 yards. 5-2-3, option 1.
- A3 recovering is also a flag for the recovery after illegal touching. 5-2-3, option 2.
Penalties:
- Back 5 yards and re-kick, or give A the ball, 1D/10 @ A-6.
- Back 5 yards and re-kick, or give A the ball, 1D/10 @ A-6, or B 1D/G @ A-6.
B will decline the illegal touching and accept the recovery after the illegal touching.
