No more 1-and-1 bonus
#1
Beginning next year, high school basketball teams will shoot two free throws for common fouls when in the “bonus.” This change to Rule 4-8-1 eliminates the one-and-one scenario and sets new foul limits each quarter for awarding the bonus free throw.

Here is the link.  NFHS

Other approved rules changes include:
  • Rule 2-1-3 establishes the official placement of a shot clock operator at the scorer’s table for those states utilizing the shot clock.

  • Rule 3-4-5 clarifies that multiple styles of uniform bottoms may be worn by teammates, but they must all be like-colored and adhere to uniform rules outlined in Rule 3-6-2 regarding logos and trademarks.

  • Rule 3-5-6 addresses undershirts and allows teams to wear a single solid color or solid black for visiting teams with dark jerseys. This provides an opportunity for schools with hard-to-find colors to have all players wear a black undershirt.

  • Rule 9-3-3 was amended to allow a player to step out of bounds and return to the court if the player gains no advantage. A player is penalized only if, after returning inbounds, the player is the first to touch the ball or avoids a violation.

5 per quarter

Theoretically you could have 16 fouls committed against you and never shoot a single FT like this.
Likewise, you could shoot 24 FTs on 16 fouls in a single quarter.

This rule was supposed to prevent injuries on rebounds? I've not looked at the data NFHS looked at for this, but it seems like an unnecessary change that will make late-game situations in high school basketball even harder to manage for teams playing from behind.

This will hugely impact late game situations.

Start fouling earlier than normal when down?

Teams keeping poor free throw shooters off court longer than last minute or 2?

Hack a shaq teams that leave said players out there?
