2001-02 Annual Interpretation Situation 6: The school-sponsored cheerleaders wish to use megaphones as part of their cheerleading routines from the sidelines. Ruling: The new rule prohibiting artificial noisemakers would not apply to the cheerleaders in this situation. The megaphones would only be legal for the cheerleader’s use, provided they were being used appropriately. (1-18)
Did a pretty thorough Forum search and while there has been some "chatter" regarding this (bang megaphones on the floor), actual rulebook, annual interpretations, or casebook citations are absent (other than 2001-02 Annual Interpretation Situation 6 above).
