What is the NFHS rule on wearables for high school sports?

NFHS does not have a single 'wearables rule.' Each sport's rulebook addresses wearables separately. HyperPulse is built around a conservative BLE-only, no-GPS, no-two-way-communication review posture, but competition use still depends on sport, event, school, state association, and official approval.

Basketball — Rule 3-5-3

Jewelry and electronic-device rules are sport-specific. HyperPulse is designed for a no-GPS, no-two-way-communication performance-monitor review path, but approval should be confirmed before competition use.

Football — Rule 1-5-4 + 3-3-7

Under-uniform performance monitoring can be a possible review path, but the event, school, state association, and officials still control competition approval.

Soccer — equipment rule

BLE/IMU sensors may be easier to review than GPS pods, but school and event approval should be confirmed before an athlete wears any device in competition.

Baseball/Softball — 2023 clarification

Some baseball/softball interpretations allow performance monitoring, but HyperPulse still requires event and official review before competition use.

Wrestling — weigh-in protocol

No foreign objects during weigh-in. Patch off for weigh-in, on for match.

Track + Cross Country — Rule 8-2-2

Wearables can be allowed in some track and cross-country contexts, but no two-way coaching or GPS course aid should be assumed. Confirm meet approval before use.

State association deference

State associations and officials retain discretion. HyperPulse materials should be treated as a rule-review aid, not a guarantee of approval.
