injured player

NFHS, found it, rule 5 sec. 8 art. 2

once team A regained possession I would blow the ball dead -- not fair to allow team A to get an easy score AND then stop play for them to attend to their player and set up defense if possible.

Also I usually ask player if hes OK -- sometimes you can tell hes not and the question is not necessary -- but plenty of times they are on the floor for a couple seconds get up and get right back in it.

Right and in the NFHS, if the opponent attempts a try for goal and misses, BY RULE, the official is supposed to blow the whistle prior to a rebound and award possession by the AP arrow.
