NFHS Rule 6, Section 1, Art. 4 "The pitcher may use any windup desired provided ... e. the pitcher does not continue to wind up after taking the forward step or after the ball is released. NOTE: Continuation of the windup is considered any action that, after the ball is released, causes the arm to continue to rotate past the shoulder. PENALTY: ... illegal pitch...
