NAIA is a college league, and play college rules.

So the NAIA has their own rulebook?

How can I get one?

Edit: Or are you saying that they play NCAA rules?

I worked an NAIA playoff game once and they used NCAA rules.

The NAIA uses NCAA rules in football.

Yup, NCAA. Just had my NAIA meeting yesterday. Actually went pretty well. I'm still waiting to get picked up by a varsity college crew so I will be working some JV games. Will be my first attempt at 7 man mechanics. Should be interesting!!

Good luck, grantsrc! If you've worked any 6-man, 7-man will be a piece of cake. If you've only worked 5-man, then the biggest thing to get used to is coordinating with your sideline partner, but that comes pretty fast. Also, relaying a ball in more often than you do in a high school game takes some guys a little while to get used to. Just remember that the dead ball action is more important than getting a ball.
