Actually, such a rule does exist. It just isn't written in the NFHS Basketball Rule Book. It's written in the NFHS Spirit Guide, which are rules that the cheerleaders are supposed to adhere to whenever performing at any NFHS game.
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.
Your state may also have restrictions with regard to cheerleaders. For example, in NC, the NCHSAA Handbook states:
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.
Sooner or later, someone is going to be severely injured as a result of cheerleaders standing during a game. Then, the proverbial manure will hit the fan.
