Thoughts?

That might just be the dumbest thing that I've heard of coming out of a camp- any camp.

NFHS signal #30 is "HOLDING". NCAA signal #21 is "HOLDING".

Both rule books recognizes holding as a normal, every-day foul. Those camp director/goobers obviously don't believe those rule books. Either that or they've never read them.

Lah me, what will they come up with next?
