Plan to curb shift plays in 1930 football season
The national football rules committee adopted a new rule to slow shift plays by requiring at least a one second stop interval before the ball is put in play, using a six count rather than four, and allowing referees to use a split second watch when timing is in doubt. The change tightens enforcement of shift plays and aims to reduce rapid tempo.
