Rules Analysis
Any time an infraction is called, the Continuation Rule applies. Continuation Rule: Play stops when the thrower in possession acknowledges that an infraction has been called.
This refers to the thrower who possesses the disc or has just released the disc at the time of the infraction/call. Who the thrower (3.O.5) is is determined at the time of the infraction/call.
If a pass is thrown or attempted before the thrower acknowledges the call or the call is made after the throwing attempt, and
if possession reverts to the thrower, all players return to the locations they occupied at the earlier of:
Therefore, if a long pass is thrown and there is a contested receiving foul, the players will return to where they were at the time of the throw (rather than remaining downfield after chasing down the disc).
