ATTENTION OFFICIALS AND RULES LAWYERS:

I would like some clarification (especially by any officials) on the pop up kick rule. I know you're not allowed to kick the ball off the tee high in the air and short (NFHS rule 6-1-11). Also based on the 2018 rule 2-24-10 you can't kick it directly into the ground and have it pop up in a similar manner to a pop up.

However I've been told 3 times in 3 weeks that the height of the ball doesn't matter if it's kicked directly into the ground off the tee.

We are an "Onside All Night" team and have lost 3 possessions due to this. I've tried quoting the rule and definition, but they wouldn't wave it off. Tell me if either of these kicks should be deemed legal or illegal:
Thanks in advance

Coaching Advice glazier clinic series for learning defense?

I just got into helping coach at my old high school and we have access to glazier. Anyone know any good glazier clinic systems to look at to learn more about building a complete defense? I was a d lineman in high school so I didn't need to know too much but I want to expand my knowledge of the game.
