Is anyone aware of a specific set of guidelines for the 30 second clock by the NFHS or are all such proceedures only from college sources? I found nothing on their website or the books (whcih obviously does not mean it is not there). I went to a link to an IAABO summary from another thread but I believe that this was also for NCAA. I was trying to get this info for my association and our rules and mechanics person to answer some questions. Thanks for any help.

There is no such beast. A 30 second clock does not exist in an NFHS game. Any HS game played with one is done so with local/state alteration of the NFHS rules.

In Nassau County (Long Island, NY) we have been using a 35 second shot clock at the high school level for a few years now. It really hasn't changed the complexion of the game because at this level it is quite rare for a play to last 35 seconds.

Ron,
try this link.....it's not NFHS but is is what we use in Girls BB in Washington. You can also go to the WIAA website and find information there.

I contacted the MIAA and made them aware that their Shot Clock Document does not follow NCAA rules regarding a throw-in. The document says it follows NCAA rules. I was told that the document has not been updated and they were not aware that it was wrong. The link above from IAABO has nice instruction cards for scorers, timers and shot clock operators (per NCAA rules for shot clock).

I notice all three links above are different from the current NCAA procedure which is to start the shot clock when the ball is legally TOUCHED or touches a player in bounds on a throw-in. These links say to start the shot clock when a team GAINS POSSESSION in bounds after a throw-in. The NCAA reference is Rule 2 Section 13 Article 5.

As far as I know, Massachusetts HS referees have been following the (current) NCAA shot clock procedure for as long as I can remember.
