or does ART. 10 apply . . . It is forward-pass interference if:
a. ANY PLAYER (my emphasis) of A or B who is beyond the neutral zone interferes with an eligible opponent's opportunity TO "MOVE FORWARD" (implied or), catch or bat the pass.
Second situation:
K kicks the ball during opening kickoff, ball goes 40 yards. two K players make contact with return team BEFORE ball is touched? Illegal block?

CANADIAN RULING:
(a) Illegal contact by Team A. 10 yards, repeat the down.
(b) Illegal interference if blocked player has a chance to possess the kick. 1D/10 for B at spot of foul.
