Parent & Player Education
« on: September 20, 2020, 10:04:05 PM »
Our Association is looking to put out some parent and player education on-line for misunderstood rules. Specifically, this is for 4th-8th grade football. We get too many parents trying to apply college or NFL rules to a NFHS rule set. Has anyone put together a list of rules that you would be willing to share that we could use to as a starter to our project?

Just make sure you keep it up to date as rules change.

Like I've said many times, they get their rules knowledge "as seen on TV"

This is slightly dated, but might be useful as a starting point:

While a worthwhile effort, doubt seriously most parents or payers will take the time to look.
