				Illegal forward pass
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			This conversation came up after tonight's game. 
 
4and 5 A runs the hook and ladder. The pass is 15 yards down field. The latteral is then forward.   
 
We have a foul for an illegal forward pass. 5 yards from the spot of the foul would still give A a first down but where does the loss of down penalty come into play?  Since this was 4th down, is it still a first down for A?
