Question

Posted

It seems that technology has changed some of the rules in recent years, or at least forced some clarifications. We are shopping for a headset system to replace our current one. 
This seems like a new thing. Are there NFHS rules that do not allow this type of communication between a coach and a player in the huddle? I have even seen that ear pieces are being advertised so it would be less obvious, or more efficient.

32 looks like a young Alvin Mack.  He doesn't need the coaches "in his ear", or in this case, "in his armpit".  Let him play.  🤣

But to answer your question, I am not 100% sure.  @Bobref  @Impartial_Observer

Illegal equipment includes “Electronic communication devices used to communicate with a player except during an outside 9-yard mark conference.” Rule 1-5-3(c)(2).
