I agree with Fense that training is a three way street. Usually the biggest factor is the inexperiance at the 1a games and it is usually on the individual level to learn this. Also the blocking below the waist rule to me is harder than it used to be. My opinion is it should be allowed only on the interior lineman and nothing more.


But a typical RB in six man would be considered a non restricted player.  Meaning while the ball is in the zone he can cut any where as long as it is not a clip by definition. (behind and below the waist). Once the ball leaves the zone he then can only cut a player as long as he is head up the 10 and 2 o clock analogy. he can not cut from side and can not cut back towards the offenses end line.


We use a ton of film in our chapter. We are lucky on that many of our schools send us film including the 1a schools who are on HUDL. We put out a weekly training play list for our guys to review and we share all game film we get across all of our officials. I can tell you that the largest foul we have issues with is once the ball leaves the zone the cut back towards the offense end line. We see a lot at the side and 90% time we seem to get those.
