The National Federation of High School Athletic Associations announced rule changes to help offenses. Illegal forward passes will now cost one down and five yards from the throw spot, allowing gains before the foul. Substitution rules ease permitting one re-entry in the fourth quarter. Scrimmage penalties cannot bring the ball closer than half the distance to the goal. 15 yard penalties apply to disqualification fouls. Backfield players may forward-hand the ball to eligible receivers.
