Rules book and case book

[Adam]

Seems to me the onus should be on the coach to show you the rule if you're going to allow these shananigans.

Yup.

We use to have an NAFL team in my area and I was a Referee. The NAFL uses NFL rules, and the NFL as we all know has challenges.

The NAFL approach to challenges was to allow a coach to keep a rule book with him and if there was a misapplication of a rule, I had to meet him at the sideline and the onus was on him to show the error of the crew. I would then interpret and make a final ruling.

i have the rules and case books on my iphone I know the rules well enough to find the one that is applicable, would you let me use the app?

In our state only the head coach is required to take the NFHS but is not required to pass it!

I think they should be required to pass it as well as the assistants. THEN, they are issued a license to discuss a rule. If they don't have a card, then they can't waste our time talking rules they no nothing about.

"That pass was uncatchable!"
