  • TO: OHSAA Football Officials FROM: Bruce Maurer, DOD; Beau
    TO: OHSAA Football Officials FROM: Bruce Maurer, DOD; Beau Rugg, Sr. Director of Officiating & Sports Management Subject: FB Bulletin - Week 9; 10/21/20 Indicated below are some items that have been observed this past week & have been brought up by our fellow officials. These Rulings supersede any previous ones issued. 1. Calls Late in Tight Games: Please make these calls “big”. As we know there is a lot at stake. Can the foul be clearly seen on video? Does the call follow the Rules? Two very helpful statements by veteran officials nationwide are: A. Don’t trouble, trouble; & B. Don’t be a Pioneer. This does not mean “pass” on a call that needs to be made. 2. Rule 3-4-7: The offended team HC must be asked by the appropriate Wing what he wants to do with the status of the GC. Please discuss this thoroughly. 3. BJ & End of 1st & 3rd Periods: After telling the R that there is no extension at the end of the 1st & 3rd Periods you will hustle to the succeeding spot ahead of the R & U. This serves as a triple check with the R/U/HL regarding spotting the chains & down box. 4. We would like to thank Jerry Peters, Greg Bartemes, & Eric Mauk for all their wonderful help with developing 90 Questions on Rules, Mechanics, & Regulations for the www.ohsaafb.com website quizzes this year. Thanks Jerry, Greg, & Eric! 5. BJ & Side Zone: We are seeing too many BJ’s using the hash mark as a stop sign – in other words once the ball is dead they are standing in the middle of the field or near the hash mark rather than moving into the Side Zone to help the Crew when the play ends near the side line.

  • How to Line the Fields
    HOW TO LINE THE FIELDS The Playing Area FIELD DIMENSIONS Section 1. The playing area shall be rectangular and marked with a solid lined boundary. The field should be between 110 to 140 yards from end line to end line; and between 60 to 70 yards from sideline to sideline. The goals shall be placed no more than 100 yards and no less than 90 yards apart, measured from goal line to goal line. There must be a minimum of 10 yards and a maximum of 20 yards of space behind each goal line, extending to the end line and running the width of the field. There must be a minimum of 4m of space between the sideline boundary and the scorer’s table. There should be at least 4m of space between the other sideline and any spectator area. There should be 2m of space beyond each end line. Section 2. It shall be the host institution’s responsibility to see that the field is in proper condition for safe play, and that the field is consistent with the Rules. Where these field dimension requirements are not or cannot be met due to field space limitations, play may take place if the visiting team has been notified in writing prior to the day of the game and personnel from both participating teams agree. However, the minimum distance of 10 yards of space from goal line to end line must be maintained. Soft/flexible cones, pylons or flags must be used to mark the corners of the field. The playing area must be flat and free of glass, stones, and any protruding objects.

  • An Analysis of the American Outdoor Sport Facility: Developing an Ideal Type on the Evolution of Professional Baseball and Football Structures
    AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN OUTDOOR SPORT FACILITY: DEVELOPING AN IDEAL TYPE ON THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL AND FOOTBALL STRUCTURES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad S. Seifried, B.S., M.Ed. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Donna Pastore, Advisor Professor Melvin Adelman _________________________________ Professor Janet Fink Advisor College of Education Copyright by Chad Seifried 2005 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical layout of the American baseball and football professional sport facility from 1850 to present and design an ideal-type appropriate for its evolution. Specifically, this study attempts to establish a logical expansion and adaptation of Bale’s Four-Stage Ideal-type on the Evolution of the Modern English Soccer Stadium appropriate for the history of professional baseball and football and that predicts future changes in American sport facilities. In essence, it is the author’s intention to provide a more coherent and comprehensive account of the evolving professional baseball and football sport facility and where it appears to be headed. This investigation concludes eight stages exist concerning the evolution of the professional baseball and football sport facility. Stages one through four primarily appeared before the beginning of the 20th century and existed as temporary structures which were small and cheaply built. Stages five and six materialize as the first permanent professional baseball and football facilities. Stage seven surfaces as a multi-purpose facility which attempted to accommodate both professional football and baseball equally.

  • New Orleans Saints Owner Tom Benson & NFL Commissioner Paul
    New Orleans Saints Owner Tom Benson & NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue Wednesday, January 11, 2006 Opening Statements: Mr. Benson: “Good afternoon everyone. It is certainly a beautiful day to be here with you and it is very exciting. As you can see by the sign we have up here that the Saints come marching in and that is what we are going to continue to do. We are looking forward to a very exciting season. As you know we are in the process of trying to hire a new coach. We visited with some of the potential coaches already and we have a few more to go and we will all be very proud of our football team as time goes on here and we are looking for a great season. I would now like to introduce the Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and then we will talk some more.” Mr. Tagliabue: “Good afternoon. As you know we are here for I think our fourth visit in the state and I think this is the most important by far because the Saints are back. The facility will be opening officially I guess a week from today. The General Manager Mickey Loomis told me some players have already been here working out. LeCharles Bentley was here today and I think this in many, many ways is a real turning point in the recovery and the rebuilding effort and the Saints contribution to all of this. We had terrific meeting last night and again this morning with about three dozen representatives of the business community and some of the not for profit sector such as the Audubon Institute, the Convention and Visitors Bureau, representatives of the Governor and of the Superdome.

  • Marking a Girls Youth Lax Field
    MARKING A GIRLS YOUTH LAX FIELD NOTES 1. The lines are part of the "area". The Goal Circle (GC) paint is "in" the GC; the 12m fan paint is "in" the fan; the 8m paint is "in" the arc. 2. Often it is helpful to put the field down yourself - correctly, even if lightly - and then let your grounds crew darken it with a machine and maintain it. Someone should plan on re-painting the lines at least every 2 weeks, before they disappear; it is much easier to maintain the markings than re-measure. 3. Color. If different sports are using the field, yellow paint works well. White is easier to see. 4. Technique: The person measuring should precede the person painting (or taping, if indoors). The measurer should always be moving first and the painter or tapers follow. Just show where the mark is and keep moving, 1-2 feet ahead of the painter/tapers. 5. Points (A, B, C, ...) on the diagrams are actually "points", not lines. Example: "D" is at the middle, front side the goal line. "A" is the middle, back side of the GC. "G" is of middle of the 8m Arc. "B" is the outside edge of the GC paint on the back side of the baseline. 6. The dashed lines are for illustration only and are not painted. 7. VERY handy, but not necessary: If your tape has a blank side, mark and label it in 7 places (see diags): 8' 6” - Goal Circle 10’ - Center Line 13'2" - 4m *m Arc Hash Marks 30’ - Center Circle 34’10” - 8m Arc 40’ 3” - A to C(diag) 47’9” - 12m Fan 8.
