Disagree. NFHS rule 5-5-1 defines the intermissions as occurring between the first, second and third quarters. And rule 10-3-4 refers to the period prior to the game and the period during any intermission as being separate periods entirely.

Yea, you're right - I was typing in a hurry. I was simply trying to point out the differences between the terms - players, team members and bench personnel. So, forget I was ever here.

Carry on.

And that's all that I'm trying to do also. Methinks we're both coming at this from the same angle.
