Garth:
The NFHS Power Point is rather clear. The issue we are dealing with on the new obstruction rule is another FEDlandia definition.
The NFHS rules state "the fielder must allow access to the base" (my paraphrase).
There is no definition as to "how much" base needs to be made available.
Our SRI was not at our meeting but many of us that had sent e-mails to Elliot feel the rule is clear and we won't "over interpret" the issue.
Regards,
