NEW RULES:
*Futbol! A player may now contact the ball with
any part of her body, including the feet. This brings the high school
rule into line with the rules in college, club, and international
play.
*Have a Seat--or Not. Coaches are now allowed
to stand and coach so long as they are not disruptive and they stay
six feet away from the court between the attack line extended and
the end line extended.
*Metallica. Unadorned bobby pins, no longer than
2 inches, may be worn to control a player's hair.
*In the Zone. If more than one substitution is
to occur, the substitutions shall be made in succession. One pair
of players after another and only one substitute shall be in the
substitution zone at a time.
*Color My World. Starting in 2010, it will be
legal to use colored panel balls in matches. The colors make it
easier for players/spectators to track the ball, thus adding excitement
to the game. For some unknown reason, the high school authorities
have resisted making this change for years.
