First: Most of the changes are the renumbering of Articles. We have to be careful when quoting a Case Book Play is no longer in the Case Book but still is in effect because the Rule has not changed but the Sections and Articles have been renumbered: e.g. 2024-25 NFHS R4-S6-A4 is now R4-S6-A5.
Second: With regard to R4-S6, the NFHS in all of its Pre-Season Publications about the "New Definition of Basket Interference" the NFHS kept referring to the "New" R4-S6-A1a and R4-S6-A1b in the 2025-26 NFHS Rules when there is no New" R4-S6-A1a and R4-S6-A1b in the 2025-26 NFHS Rules. Instead, the "New" R4-S6-A1a is really the 2024-25 NFHS R4-S6-A1 which also the 2025-26 NFHS R4-S6-A1. While the "New" R4-S6-A1b is actually the 2025-26 NFHS R4-S6-A2, with the succeeding Articles in the 2024-25 NFHS R6-A4 being renumbered.
Similar changes occur in R10-S4 which were made necessary because of the changes made in R4-S6.
