In my association, cheerleaders are not allowed on the floor for 30 second time-outs. Only 60 seconds. Anyone know where this is in the rule book, case book, or officials manual? I can't find it and it may be something specific to our association. Thanks.

I remembered reading this a couple of years ago and went back to my old books and found it.
NFHS 2001-2002 Rules Book page 72 Comments on the Rules Revisions
Under the requirement to stand during a 30-second time-out there is the sentence: "Additional discussion reflected concerns about some states not enforcing the 'no cheerleaders' on the floor during a 30-second time-out and whether or not substitutes should be permitted to join the conference with coach(es) and players."
Where else it appears, I have no idea.
