National high school football rules changes announced
The National Interscholastic Football Committee revealed three minor rule changes to take effect next fall. These include redoing a free kick not crossing the receiver’s restraining line after a five yard penalty, clarifying encroachment in the neutral zone, and redefining a handed pass behind the line of scrimmage as not a forward pass if delivered to eligible receivers. The changes aim to open play and reduce infractions, with emphasis on play variety and spectator appeal.
