7-5-4: This rule change updates the procedure for determining the designated throw-in spot following a stoppage of play (not due to the ball going out of bounds) in the frontcourt and backcourt. Instead of relying on an imaginary line, officials now use existing court markings, specifically the three-point line, to determine the location. This change improves accuracy, consistency, and clarity for officials by using visible floor markings rather than imaginary lines, which were often misjudged.

Rationale: By using the visible three-point line as the line of demarcation, officials will have a clearer and more consistent method for determining throw-in locations. This improves accuracy and reduces confusion, resulting in more reliable throw-ins.

Itling:

Where did the NFHS make any change to R7-S5-A4 in its May 28, 2025 publication from its May 21, 2025 publication. I do not see any change in the Rule nor in its Rationale. Both the May 21, 2025 publication and the May 28, 2025 publication are the same: word for word.
