  3. SOME OF THE RULES OUTLINED IN THIS MANUAL THAT WE DO NOT USE!!! • WE DO NOT HAVE AN UNCATCHABLE PASS. • WE CAN HAVE INTENTIONAL GROUNDING IF THE PASS WAS THROWN FROM OUTSIDE THE TACKLE BOX. • YOU CANNOT LEGALLY GROUND THE BALL FROM THE SHOTGUN FORMATION. • BBW IS ILLEGAL UNLESS SPECIFIC CRITERIA ARE MET. • BREAKING THE HUDDLE WITH 12-PLAYERS IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC FOUL. • ANY KICK BREAKING THE PLANE OF R’S GOAL IS AN AUTOMATIC TOUCHBACK. • THE FREE KICK ONLY NEEDS TO BOUNCE ONCE TO BE CONSIDERED GROUNDED. • K PLAYERS DO NOT NEED TO BE WITHIN 5-YARDS OF THEIR RESTRAINING LINE PRIOR TO THE KICK & DO NOT NEED 4-PLAYERS ON EACH SIDE OF THE KICKER. • IT IS A FOUL IF A PLAYER OF “B” BREAKS THE NEUTRAL ZONE BEFORE THE SNAP.

  4. SOME OF THE RULES OUTLINED IN THIS MANUAL THAT WE DO NOT USE!!! • IF TEAM “A” MAKES A LATE SUBSTITUTION WE DO NOT DELAY THE SNAP TO ALLOW TEAM “B” TO MATCH UP. • A PERSONAL FOUL ON THE DEFENSE IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC 1ST DOWN. • OPI IS A LOD FOUL. • LEAPING OVER THE SHIELD ON A PUNT PLAY IS NOT A FOUL. • WE DO NOT HAVE A 10 SECOND RUNOFF OPTION. • OUR OVERTIME PROCEDURES START 1ST & GOAL FROM THE 10 YARD LINE. • ON A 1 POINT TRY THE BALL IS DEAD WHEN IT IS OBVIOUS THE KICK HAS FAILED. ON A 2 POINT TRY THE BALL IS DEAD WHEN “B” SECURES POSSESSION. • THE PLAY CLOCK IS 25 SECONDS ONLY. • THE GAME CLOCK IS STARTED ON THE SNAP (NOT WHEN THE UMPIRE SPOTS THE BALL) WHEN STOPPED FOR AN OUT OF BOUNDS RUNNER.

  5. WHEN TO WIND THE CLOCK AND RELAYING THE BALL • WHEN THE BALL BECOMES DEAD INBOUNDS DEEP IN A SIDE ZONE (NEARER THE SIDELINE THAN THE HASHMARK), THE COVERING OFFICIAL BLOWS HIS WHISTLE, MARKS THE SPOT AND LEAVES THE BALL IN ITS POSITION ON THE GROUND. • IF THE PLAY ENDS INBOUNDS WITHIN 2 OR 3 FEET OF THE SIDELINE GIVE THE WIND THE CLOCK SIGNAL (UNLESS THE PLAY ENDS IN A FIRST DOWN). • AFTER ALL ACTION HAS CEASED, OBTAIN A BALL FROM A BALL PERSON TO BE PLACED AT THE INBOUNDS LINE. • A NON-COVERING OFFICIAL SHOULD BE ALERT TO OBTAIN A BALL FROM A BALL PERSON AND RELAY IT IN TO BE SPOTTED. • REMEMBER IF IT IS AN OBVIOUS FIRST DOWN DO NOT GIVE THE WIND THE CLOCK SIGNAL & THEN THE STOP THE CLOCK SIGNAL. • ONLY GIVE THE STOP THE CLOCK SIGNAL.
