replacement interval
NFHS Does the 20 second replacement interval apply when a player is required to leave the game due to wearing jewelry?
|
It's not addressed by rule, but do you seriously have a coach who is wanting this interval?
|
From the one case play I see the answer would be no. When it's discovered during the game, the player has to leave the game immediately.

I think the question is what to do if the coach refuses.
The 20 second interval would be good, but it's not coded in the rule. You could just issue the T when he makes it clear he doesn't intent to comply. |
I think it *DOES* apply.
10-5-2 "The head coach shall replace a disqualified / injured player, or player directed to leave the game, within 20 seconds when a substitute is available. |
Never mind, then. :)

One thing though, Bob. It says the HC has 20 seconds to replace the player but in the case play I cited there’s nothing about being able to use a TO to keep a player in the game when (s)he is wearing jewelry. Injury and/or blood, yes. It may be a difference of something a player can control (jewelry) as opposed to something they can’t (injury and/or bleeding).

That's not what was asked, though. |

Would the replacement interval be given if no sub is available (so HC can talk with his remaining players)..?? This is a question from another discussion board.

There are some on the other discussion board that don't see any significance in the verbiage "...when a substitute is available.". What I'm getting from multiple sources is there are no other references that might clarify this issue for these non-believers. Thanks for the help AremRed. |
