original rule books

I will be leading some game analysis lessons with my team and with other teams in the future. I am looking for the original versions of the rule books from the past few years. Some of the revisions had a major impact on the game, and in some cases, I would prefer that my students analyze the rules as they were written before these changes.

I am aware of the archived game documentation page on the usfirst website, but it would save me some trouble if I just had the original rule book instead of the updates and the revised rule book.

Thanks

Re: original rule books

We have most of the originals archived.
Any particular years?

Re: original rule books

I am looking specifically for 2010 because the method for earning seeding points changed. However, if you have them, I would love any/all since 2008.

Re: original rule books

Do you also happen to have the Tournament section (section 9)?

Re: original rule books

Added the Tournament section to the previous post.
Here are some (max of 5 attachments).
2009-2014 original rules are ready to hand.

However, 2008 is a little bit of a mixed bag, because we stored the original as a database.

Re: original rule books

2011 rules are too large to post, so both 2011 an 2008 will take more effort to post.

Re: original rule books

The best I can do for 2008 is this version from 6 days after Kickoff, and the two Team Updates identifying the changes made.

Re: original rule books

I found the original 2008 game manual too (right where it was supposed to be archived), so post #8 can be disregarded.
