If I remember correctly, in past years the rule book had some changes that were not publicized. They were mostly language changes, not actual rule changes. Has anyone found any this year?

I was at the NFHS website and they seemed to only announce one correction in the Officials Manual page 70-71, 342, changes to text. It has to do with the reporting of a disqualified player with 3 person officiating.
They also had some "Case book" situations - just updated ones from the look of them. |

I don't know any from this season. The last couple of seasons have seen unannounced changes in throw-in procedures.
1) After a made or awarded score, the inbounding team retains the privilege of running the endline if the defensive team commits a common foul that does not result in bonus FTs (assuming the foul was committed near the endline). 2) The defending team may not break the OOB plane until the throw-in has been released toward the playing court.

Chuckster, What year did this change? I have rules books back to the 2001-02 season and the wording of 9-2-11 is exactly the same as it is in 2005-06 book. If this really was an UNannounced change, I am most interested in when it happened. The NCAA rule is different just FYI. Under NCAA rules the defender may not break the plane until the ball breaks the plane. |

We had long arguments about this rule a couple years ago. The rule about breaking the plane was very clear. You couldn't break the plane until the throw-in was released. You're right, that's been the rule forever. But the rule about touching the ball was murkier. It never said that touching the ball was ok after the release. I took this to mean that you could break the plane after the throw-in was released -- say your momentum had you jumping forward -- but that it was still a T to actually touch the ball on the OOB side of the plane. Other people thought that all the restrictions regarding the OOB plane ended when the throw-in was released. In any case, in the '02-'03 rulebook, 9-2, PENALTY(3) says it's a T if an opponent reaches through the plane and touches or dislodges the ball. But in the '03-'04 book 9-2, PENALTY(3) says it's a T to reach through the plane and touch or dislodge the ball "while in possession of the thrower or being passed to a teammate outside the boundary line". This unannounced change put an end to that argument. It is now a T only if the ball is touched before it's released on the throw-in pass.
