MSHSL | Rule Review | BLE-Only
Is HyperPulse legal in Minnesota?
Minnesota high school sports operate under Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL), which follows NFHS rule baselines. HyperPulse is designed as a BLE-only sensor with no GPS, no cellular, and no athlete-facing communication, but competition use still requires sport, school, event, and official approval.

MSHSL rule alignment
Minnesota State High School League follows the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) rule baseline for each sport, but each sport and event still needs its own review. HyperPulse keeps the hardware posture conservative: under-uniform placement, no GPS, no cellular, and no two-way athlete communication.
That does not mean automatic approval. It means coaches, parents, and administrators have a cleaner rule-review package to present before an athlete wears any device in competition.
Minnesota's top sports - all supported
Minnesota high school athletics are anchored in hockey, basketball, football. Major metro programs in Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Rochester have full HyperPulse compatibility. The metric stack is tuned per sport:
- Football - max sprint speed, contact/load context, explosive step index, movement-load context, workload trend. Worn under shoulder pads, never in the helmet.
- Basketball - vertical, hang time, court coverage, sprint count, landing impact. Worn on upper back under jersey.
- Soccer - pacing context, high-intensity runs, work-rate index, work-rest rhythm. Approval still depends on the event and officials.
- Baseball / Softball - sprint count, peak burst, throwing-load context, recovery trend. Competition use still needs review.

MN Compliance Card
Every HyperPulse unit is planned to include a printable MSHSL-formatted rule-review card citing the relevant sport-specific questions. Hand it to the head official before warmups. Pre-launch field feedback is still a validation milestone, not a guarantee of approval.
