40 SECOND PLAY CLOCK SITUATIONS Dead ball inbounds Dead ball out of bounds Incomplete pass Team A awarded first down Double change of possession, A next to snap. (No foul)
25 Second Clock (administrative) Penalty administration Charged team timeout or officials timeout Injury/helmet off. ( A and B) Measurement Change of possession, B next to snap After any score Inadvertent whistle Start of each period Legal kick down ends Start of overtime period
Blowing ball in vs Silent Wind 40 sec play clock Ball becomes ready as soon as official spots ball and steps away to position. Do not blow whistle to make ball ready. On first downs, wind clock as soon as ball is spotted. (silent wind, don’t blow whistle.) Do not need to wait for chains. 25 sec play clock Blowing whistle to signify ball is ready for play. (Just like we used to) Whistle will start play clock
IMPORTANT If the 40 second play clock drops below 25 seconds before the ball is ready (down), reset the clock to 25 when the ball becomes ready. (Long incomplete pass, breaking up some dead ball action, etc.) On first downs inbounds, umpire’s will not allow ball to be snapped until the referee winds the game clock. Don’t need to wait for chains to make ball ready. Make sure box man hustles, if offense is in hurry up HL can drop bean bag at spot.
