A Forward Pass is passing the football to a teammate in front of you. A Lateral Pass is the player carrying the ball passing the football on side or behind him/her.
The term for defensive player catching opposing team's pass is an interception.
Introduction of the Forward PassNo one really knows when exactly the first forward pass was implemented in an actual game, but most historians do agree that in 1873 represenatives from Yale, Princeton, and Rutgers met to discuss formulating rules for this new game of football. The new rules consisted of reducing the number of men on the field from fifteen to eleven. Adding a fourth down before surrenduring the ball. Tackling below the waist was allowed. And lastly, the forward pass was leagalized behind the line of scrimmage. The NFL/AFL merger did not happen until 1970. But by then the forward pass was an intracate part of the game. (Scott Menzel)
Forward passes are not allowed if: a) the passer has traveled beyond the line of scrimmage, or b) a forward pass has already been thrown during the play, or c) the passer is intentionally grounding the ball to avoid a sack, or d) possession has changed during the play.
The spiral pass is the most accurate.

No, it is ruled an incomplete pass
In American football and Canadian football a lateral pass or lateral (officially backward A lateral pass is distinguished from a forward pass, in which the ball is after taking the snap, to quickly transfer. The Canada football is not the NFL. That's what I asked.

A backward pass is one that does not go forward. Often, the receiver of a backward pass may then pass the ball forward. Once the ball has been passed forward, it may not be passed forward again during the same play.
um i don't know actually I'm sorry but you can find some information on the links below. but i know that with football you have to pass the ball behind not forward. if you do a forward pass it will be a penalty. i hope you do get better answers. good luck

There is no such thing; almost all passes never leave the ground and those that do are always forward. You are confused with American football, where a forward pass is ruled dead once it touches the ground.
A lateral is a pass that is thrown sideways to or behind the player that throws the pass. This is the opposite of a 'forward pass' which is a pass thrown downfield, or in front of, the player that throws the pass. American football rules state that only one forward pass can be thrown per play. However, there is no limit as to the number of lateral passes that can be thrown per play.
In football, I would say a wide receiver.
In American and Canadian Football, a ball can be passed forward from behind the line of scrimmage. If the ball falls on the ground it is called an incomplete pass. That means no one caught it. It can also be called an incomplete. That is a short way of saying "It is an incomplete forward pass."
Yes if you are throwing the ball forward!
