Brandon: See your local HS coach to see what officials association they use for the main season. Contact the president or any member of that local association to see if you can get last year's rule book to get started. Remember that each activity has its own rule book. NCAA men have a rule book which is different from NCAA Women while National Federation of High Schools has its own book. I would concentrate on the HS rule book first, especially reviewing and learning chapter 4 (Definitions) and then revert back to chapters 1-3; 5-10. Once you master or understand the definitions, the other chapters are a little easier to tie together. I must tell you that something in the way of rules, mechanics and points of emphasis changes every year for each --NCAA M; W and HS so use last year's book as your baseline and then grab the new year's book to see what changed.
