This is always interesting. as the two sports I work, softball and volleyball, are both the only two sports in NYS that do NOT subscribe to NFHS rules and practices. Our state softball group, as you well know by now, uses ASA JO rules as a base with our own mechanics, and we (I should say they) write our own test. It is much more literate, and it is HARD. A very good prep for the season.

Volleyball logically uses the NCAA book as a base, and then they add a few local modifications. The test is open book, and is still difficult. Again, a good prep for the season.

Both state groups, by the way, are at loggerheads with the state over this, which would prefer both groups be NFHS. The rumors are that there a connection with some of the state officials and NFHS that is not exactly above the board, and that's all I will say about THAT!
