I never get into that. "How you shoot is up to you. But you can't use a flash during the game."

Oh, but it was fun telling him that.

Our local kids rec league has a rule prohibiting flash pictures during play. It was put in about 10 years ago when a parent standing on the corner of the endline and the sideline pressed the flash on his camera just as a kid was about to receive a hard pass. The flash temporarily "blinded" him and the ball smacked him in the face, breaking his nose!

If we see a flash go off during play, the Board member in attendance politely tells the person that the league has a rule against it. They may take all the pictures they want during play, just not with their flash. They can use their flash during timeouts and before or after the game. To my knowledge, we've never had a parent complain after being told.

Under IHSA guidelines and policies, cameras with flashes by spectators are clearly verboten. More leeway with the media.

I would have expected that in Wisconsin, not Illinois.
