I don't have a rulebook in front of me...

...and I worked a doubleheader on chain crew last night.

(For those that don't know me, I'm hoping to become an official as early as next season)

Anyway, in both games there were appropriately called offensive pass interference penalties. There happened to be two different crews working the different games which usually doesn't happen at my stadium. The first crew marked off 15 yards for the penalty, but then at question by the offending team's coach (claiming it's only 10 yards for offensive) they huddled and moved the ball back up 5 yards. The coach on the other sideline didn't seem bothered by this.

In the second game, offensive pass interference; 15 yards; run your next play. Neither coach complained, and the penalty was 15.

Which is correct? Did one coach get away with 5 yards? My gut tells me (and from what I remember about the high school rules) it's 15 yards for offensive AND defensive P.I. Plus, with both crews thinking that way at least initially, it seems like that's the way it is.

Any help?
