Forward Passing Rule Changes In High School Football
The National Federation of High School Associations rules committee approved several changes. A legal forward handoff by backs and ends to eligible receivers is now allowed, replacing the old lateral or backward handoff. Other changes include penalties for disqualification fouls and adjusted scrimmage penalties that cap at half the distance to goal. An inadvertent touch by an ineligible player behind the line will be ruled incomplete, not a loss of ball, and a second eligible receiver rule remains in effect.
