I was curious....

Are there any states that do not use NFHS rules in football? This subject came up, in all places, at a VOLLEYBALL officials meeting...let me explain...

Here in New York state our hs volleyball does not use the NFHS rulebook - we use the NCAA book, with certain modifications; the same with our softball officials - we use the ASA (Amateur Softball Association) 18U rules...again with certain mods..

In both cases, the NY state high school association believes (justifiably so, IMO) that the NFHS rules simply do not prepare the kids well enough for the college level of each sport, rules wise..I was wondering if any place feels the same way about football....
