NFHS Question

[benbret]

On a completed pass does the receiver need to have the first foot that hits the ground inbounds or both feet. What if the receive jumps to catch the pass and both feet hit the ground at the same time and one is in bounds and one is out of bounds.

if one foot is out of bounds and one foot is in bounds, then the player is out of bounds.

As I understand it, NFL rules are the only rule set that require both feet in bounds to complete a catch.

Yep. Need to have something in and nothing out.

Yes. At one time all the codes required it.
