I'm very interested in how this is going to be called at events this season. By the definitions and rules, this form of Trapping is Possession that would lead to an Assist. However, based on the comments of many volunteers, who are using the "grandmother rule", Trapping is not "enough" Possession to constitute an Assist. I hope that everyone is going to enforce the actual written rules, as opposed to this esoteric grandmother clause.
