Under NFHS rules, does a player need to have all four points snapped up? Any rule reference would be wonderful.
Only the NCAA mandates a four point chin strap.

However, the NF rule says (1-5-1b) that the strap must be properly fastened. An NF interpret says this means all available points must be fastened.
I look at it this way, if the helmet has four points, the strap better have four snaps. If the helmet only has two points, then the strap should only have two snaps.

I don't even recall seeing a 2 point/snap helmet and chin strap in easily the last ten years, maybe longer
