Pop Warner game last Sat.
Team A - original offensive team Team B - original defensive team 1st and ten. Team A passes, ball is intercepted by Team B, after the interception (change of possesion) Team B player is going back up the field, a Team A player (original offensive team) rips the ball out of the Team B players hand (change of possesion again) and is tackled. White Hat went with 1st and 10 again for Team A based on a change of possesion. I say 2nd down and 15 from where the Team A player was tackled because the end of the down kills the play and not a change of possesion. Which ruling is correct?

I think WH is right you say B1 had the ball ripped out of his hands but you dont say who recovered I am assuming it was recovered by A if so it is 1st and ten for A

Another example of this type of play
It is 4th down and A is punting.
R blocks the punt picks it up and gains possession and runs with it a few yards. Then R is hit by A/K player and fumbles with the A/K team recovering. 1st and 10 A/K.

Team A did have the ball at the end of the down. That is where I am confused.
Since the down did not change and the line to gain had not been met, why would Team A get a new set of downs?

I finally found the reference 5-1-3d.
Thanks for the clarifications.

Rick,
One additional detail. The clock will start with the ready for play, not the snap, for A's new series! A change of possession has the clock start on the snap IF it is B's ball...or either team's ball if it is after a legal kick. But a double change of possession without a kick does not hold the clock until the snap.
