Well the IHSA apparantly ruled on this issue. Here is the bulletin from our website.

Case Situations
1.4.12



Some observations and a response to a question that arose during the holidays.

1. Questions arose about the use of iPads by teams during games. Rule 10-3 is clear that if iPads or computers are being used for taking statistics, they can be used. This would include taking statistics using an iPad and then taking the iPad into the locker room at halftime. In this usage, the iPad is no different than a clipboard. However, iPads can't be used to take pictures or film sequences of play and used on the bench or in the locker room by coaches during a game. Rule 10-3 is clear against the use of computers/iPads in that manner. Officials might want to ask during the pre-game coaches/captains meeting whether a school uses such technology or not, and if one does, remind the head coach what Rule 10-3 allows.

Peace
