2) It is legal to hang on the rim if a player is fouled or a player is avoiding an injury to himself or herself or another player.
10) Palming or carrying is when the hand is under the ball or when ball rests in the hand.
13) The inbounding player does not have a plane restriction, but has five seconds to release the ball and it must come directly onto the court.
14) If a player's momentum carries him or her off the court, he or she can be the first player to touch the ball after returning inbounds. That player must reenter at approximately the same spot he or she went out.
16) The hand is part of the ball at all times. This includes holding, dribbling, passing, or even during a shot attempt. Striking the ball handler or a shooter on that playerÂ’s hand, is not a foul, no matter how loud it sounds or how much it hurts.
24) The intent of the three-second rule is to not allow an offensive player to gain an advantage. Referees will not call this violation if the player is not gaining an advantage.

(2) Say what? Where may I find that in the NFHS rule book or case book? I thought it was only legal if the fouled player did so to avoid injury-PERIOD. Just being fouled doesn't give any player license to hang on the rim, does it?
(10) Rules citation, please, to back up that statement.
(13) Can the inbounding player legally step in bounds through the plane then?
(14) Rules citation, please, to back that statement up.
(16) Rules citation, please, to back that statement up. I was always under the impression that it WAS a foul if the defender DELIBERATELY slapped a player's hand while it was on the ball.
(24) Rules citation,please, to back that statement up. That may be how it is taught, but I've never seen that language in a rule book.
Methinks your IAABO board might be misunderstanding a few rules too.
