Why not make some for male players, and others for female players? Half of the interpretations, rules, test questions, etc., should have he or his, and the other half should have she or her.
Are officials so stupid that a NFHS statement about boys would lead us to believe that it wouldn't be the same for girls, and vice versa (exception for ball size)?
