2. OLD RULE: Coach: A coach not in his team's uniform "may go onto the field to attend a player." (3.2.1d)
NEW RULE: Coach: He may enter the field "if one of his or her players is ill or injured."
The change could simply be to insert "his or her," just to show how non-sexist they are. Or maybe it's to specify that a coach not in uniform cannot go onto the field to tend to an opposing player. Maybe there were a lot of problems with that happening. If you were a coach, would you want an opposing coach tending to an ill or injured player on your team if that coach was not wearing the uniform of his or her team?
