Sounds good to me.

Way too much ado about "taking the signal" aspect, which the international rule addresses with the "2 second pause". This year, wbsc allow one foot on and/or step back prior to the hands coming together (similar to pre-2017 NFHS rule). Wbsc allows a leap, land and follow-through, which I would support at any level of play. Still has the 24-inch.

That was the reasoning for football, but IIRC football does not allow sunglasses. I think this is another case of the NFHS creating a 1 sport fits all rule rather than being specific to the circumstances of each individual sport.

That is my personal opinion on the matter.
