We were taught never to spear and it was a 15 yard penalty. Not sure where you played but not surprised that some ignorant coaches would have taught that. Sorry for your injuries because of bad coaching.
I wouldn't technically call it spearing.. To me spearing implies a launch into the target. That being said, looking back on, it wasn't good.. I played at Deuche Bag High School.. Our little pet name for Dobyns Bennett.. Haaaa..
And yea.. Some of our coaches definitely weren't the sharpest tools in the shed..
