From the NFHS Spirit Guide:
2-1-7
Stunts shall not be performed during a basketball or volleyball game when the ball is in play, including free throws.
2-1-11
Cheerleaders must not stand behind the free throw line extended.
I wish the NFHS would add this rule to the Basketball Rules Book, so that it could be beter enforced. The NCHSAA has added the folowing to the state Handbook:
CHEERLEADERS: Cheerleaders must remain seated during all live balls, which includes after the free throw shooter is handed the ball. Cheerleaders may not come onto the floor during 30-second timeouts.
