That's funny, but I can't believe that NFHS doesn't have someone who sees how confusing this is.

Aren't the interpretations posted each year to "clarify" the rules

Maybe next year ...

Thanks

According to the official NFHS dictionary, the definition of "clarify" is "to obfuscate".

SITUATION 9: Team A is making a throw-in near the division line in the team's frontcourt (Team B's backcourt). A1's throw-in is deflected by B1, who is applying direct pressure on A1. B2 jumps from his/her backcourt and catches the ball in the air. B2 lands with the first foot in the frontcourt and second foot in the backcourt. RULING: Backcourt violation on Team B. The throw-in ends with the deflection (legal touch) by B1. B2 gains possession/control and first lands in Team B's frontcourt and then steps in Team B's backcourt. The provision for making a normal landing only applies to the exceptions of a throw-in and a defensive player, and is only for the player making the initial touch on the ball. (9-9-1; 9-9-3)

I also think Situation 12 is confusing (although it does match the case play change this year)

Are the interpretations available online? Can you provide a link? Thanks!
