Sorry, I am not familiar with FED rules... and never even heard of them before coming to this board.
Here.... High School rules = OBR

No problem, I kind of figured that. I just wanted to make everyone aware that there really is a stupid balk rule for this - it's just in another rule book.

I think the PENALTY is referring to the shoulder turn, prohibited by 6-1-1, since 6-1-1 also says the pitching regulations begin when the pitcher steps on the rubber. I can't find a case book play on this.

The shoulder turn is no longer a balk in FED, with the recent changes. And I can't imagine anyone not making THAT change immediately.

I think the rule change is for 2005. Anyone playing FED now, is still under the current rule. The new rule will still prohibit turning the shoulders while in windup position, and after coming set.
