Tim & Jan, thanks for the guidance. It certainly helps where the NFHS Rulebook & Casebook are "ambiguous." Once, I experienced a player jam their finger "during" a rally, but since they were mobile and stepped off the court, play continued. The "procedures for apparently unconscious" situation and definitely the "jammed finger, but steps off the court" situation would be very helpful Case Situations. How many R's know to allow play to continue if an injured player (jammed finger) steps off the court (not pose a safety hazard)? Yes, they are few-and-far-between situations, and chances are that an R will side-with-caution and stop the rally, but for us newer R's, it would be nice to know ahead-of-time what proper action should/should not be taken. And having the Rulebook clearly state "Do not touch the player, except for life-saving measures" would be a great thing to have included. Thanks again Tim & Jan
