Here is a clip of Tyler's "Center Sneak" play during the Glen Allen Ravens versus the Kanawha Redskins PeeWee JV football game on 10/04/2008. Tyler ran his "center sneak" play for over 20 yards that was unfortunately called for an illegal procedure penalty. Originally the Metro football league said the trick play was legal but the field referee said it was not and the league then changed their mind. Tyler's jersey number is 93.
Yeah my coach tried this once we would have scored if we would have known that for it to be legal the qb's hands must touch the ball then the center can run it

Are you idiots too stupid to read the description? Since I think you guys are I will post part of it here...

@tube0501 yeah but he handed it off to the center he didnt pass it to him...
linemen can get the ball...they can handoff or lateral it to them(not forward obviously)

Planned loose ball plays (fumblerooski) are illegal in NFHS rules. For any lineman to get a handoff, he must face his own goalline or it would be a 5 yard live ball illegal formation penalty.

For the fumbleruski to be legal and avoid spinning etc. the QB puts the ball on the ground- like a fumble and then the center or guard picks up the ball. A fumble is a live ball and anyone can pick it up and run. The QB in the video handed the ball to the center- if however they ran a single wing type formation the center can be considered an eligible receiver if he is to one side of 5 lineman.

It is definitely an illegal play. Not only does the exchange have to happen and the lineman has to turn around 180 degrees, but he also has to be at least one yard behind the line of scrimmage. I used to run a play I called the Guard Special which took advantage of that exact rule. Told the officials I was going to run it at the beginning of the game so they would be aware. Great play if it is run correctly, which this one wasn't. Too bad, cause it's a great play.

The correct way to run the play is to have the qb put the ball on the ground and then the center can pick it up. After the snap the center drops on all fours and the qb puts the ball on the ground between the centers legs.

@speranzayaya The center CANNOT be a legal receiver. Only players on the end of the line or in the backfield at the snap are legal receivers.
