Did you actually find this in the rule book? Because it gets called all of the time at my sons bantam b hockey games.
Check with any coach or official for their rule book.

The rule references start on page 383. No diving.

I would get a game sheet copy from your team manager where you "think" diving was called as a penatly. Verify what the actual call was. If you see diving, you may want to pass it along to the district supervisor.

Unless there is some other rule book in play for your local games, the USA guidelines don't have it.
