NFHS Changes - 1-3-1
The center restraining circle specifications were
changed to permit a minimum of a ¼-inch-wide
single line but a line no wider than 2-inches to
designate the outer edge of the circle. Contrasting
colored-floor areas are still permissible.
Rationale: Many existing courts already have a
center circle that has a single ¼ -inch line. A
mathematical line between two solid colors is also
permitted in Table 1-1, Supplement to the
Basketball Court, No. 3. This change provides
consistency in the rule.

NFHS Changes - 3-5-3 New
The specifications regarding arm compression
sleeves were changed to require the item to be
white, black, beige or a single solid school color, be
the same color for each team member and have
only a single manufacturer’s logo that does not
exceed 2 ¼ square inches. Arm compression
sleeves must still be worn for medical purposes.
Rationale: This rules change provides clarification
and makes enforcement more consistent for
officials.
F L O R I D A H I G H S C H O O L A T H L E T I C A S S O C I A T I O N
NFHS Changes - 4-12-1, 4-12-2 & 4-12-6
Several definitions were changed to reflect that team
control will now exist during a throw-in when the
thrower-in has the ball at his/her disposal. The change
primarily affects how foul penalties will be administered.
Rationale: By changing the definition of player and
team control to include a throw-in, greater consistency in
the penalty for a common foul is achieved.
This rules change will result in greater consistency in the
penalties for common fouls, eliminate confusion on rule
application and speed up the contest by eliminating the
delay inherent with administering free throws.

NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
1-11-2, 3
Updated specifications were added to the
basket-ring rules. A note was also added
recommending that basket rings be
inspected for rules compliance.
Rationale: The changes will more
accurately describe the products used in
the marketplace and encourage some type
of equipment inspection.

NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
2-2-4 New Note
A note was added clarifying the administrative
responsibilities of game officials through the completion of
required reports.
Rationale: The administrative duties for game officials
needed to be extended after the game to document actions
which occur during the game.
This revision illustrates the difference between the game
officials’ jurisdiction during the game and other
administrative responsibilities such as submitting specific
reports after the game.
F L O R I D A H I G H S C H O O L A T H L E T I C A S S O C I A T I O N
NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
3-4-1c New Note
A new note was added recommending that the
visiting team’s dark jersey be the darker of the
school’s color scheme or black.
Rationale: Many schools believe that a
contrasting dark-colored jersey need only be a
color other than white. When visiting teams wear
light blue, light gold or light silver, it is difficult to
differentiate them from the home white jerseys.
F L O R I D A H I G H S C H O O L A T H L E T I C A S S O C I A T I O N
NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
3-5-1 New Note
A new note was added authorizing state associations to grant exceptions
to NFHS playing rules for participants with disabilities, special needs
and/or extenuating circumstances.
Rationale: Clarifies that an individual state association may authorize
exceptions to NFHS playing rules to provide reasonable
accommodations to individual participants with disabilities and/or special
needs or other unique and extenuating circumstances. Such exceptions
are not considered rules modifications since they are not general in
nature; rather, they are limited to the circumstances of specific individual
participants.

NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
4-19-3
The definition of an intentional foul was clarified and
reorganized.
Rationale: Clarification.
5-11 &12
The sections related to charged time-outs were
consolidated and reorganized. Section 5-12 became
unnecessary and was deleted.
Rationale: Clarification.

NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
6-4-3e, g & Note
Alternating-possession throw-in situations were
clarified.
Rationale: Current items e. and g. were
inaccurate given the point of interruption
procedure in 4-36. The Note was also clarified.
F L O R I D A H I G H S C H O O L A T H L E T I C A S S O C I A T I O N
NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
8-6-2, 8-6-3 New, 8-7
The penalty administration for when single
fouls occur as part of a multiple free-throw
situation and when a double foul occurs as part
of a multiple free-throw situation was clarified.
Based on these editorial changes, Section 8-7
became unnecessary and was deleted.
Rationale: Clarification.

NFHS EDITORIAL CHANGES
9-2-10 Penalty 4
Clarified that when an opponent contacts the
thrower-in, an intentional foul shall be charged
to the offender.
Rationale: Any type of contact on a thrower is
an intentional foul. The defender does not
actually have to break the boundary plane.
This clarification will assist in more consistent
enforcement.

2011-13 MAJOR MECHANICS
CHANGES
2.2.2.C.6 New
• Crew of Two Only: The Trail will mirror the Lead’s stop-and startclock (chop) signal to ensure proper court coverage.
• Rationale: This is the three-person mechanic. Too many times in a
crew of two it is hard for the timer to see the Lead start the clock.
This was the rationale for three-person mechanics, so the same
technique should be used for a crew of two. It is also good training
for those transitioning from a crew of two to three.

2011-13 MAJOR MECHANICS
CHANGES
2.4.4.B.4 & 3.4.4.B.4
• A visible signal (point to the table) was added to
indicate when the timer should start the clock on a
time-out.
• Rationale: Helps to provide consistent
administration of time-out situations.
