Clarification POD 5-3

[Jim S]

Sean, your premise about loose ball possession is correct. A loose ball is always in team possession of the last player that possessed it. Unless, per FF1-3, PSK applies.

Now if it stay the same that will stand (or maybe become clearer). If they change it, as Bob says he was told they will, then team possession may not change until a B player possesses the ball, or the ball becomes dead by rule, (note that requiring player possession will require changes in the PSK definition and/or enforcement) or SOMETHING else as yet unknown, or. like some FED changes over the years, ALL of the above ............

I think that the easiest way to resolve this in keeping with the prinicples behind PSK is to have possession change when the ball is kicked. Any further change of possession either takes away or restores the PSK situation. This also resolves any question about which team is in possession when the ball becomes dead when no player has possessed the ball after the kick.
