ADDITIONAL RULES FOR 2020 SEASON
1. There will be no Jamboree this year!
- Rule V at this time does not apply, cutoff mouth pieces are allowed. Recommend to leave a tab on them so they can still be seen by an official unless designed for oral protection due to braces, etc.
- Temperatures will be taken at every practice and games. Temperatures will be taken before practice. If a player has a temp they can be allowed to sit for a while and then have it taken again, if they still have a temp then it can be taken with an oral thermometer. If a player still has a temp then they must leave practice, if they come to the next practice and have a fever then they must have a Doctors slip to return to practice. At games there will be someone present from the opposing team to verify temps. This will be done 45 mins prior to game start. If they have a fever at game time then the player will not be allowed to participate in the contest, if they have a fever at the next practice they must leave and before they can return they will need a Doctors slip. TO HAVE A TEMPERATURE IT MUST READ 100 DEGREES OR HIGHER. The league recommends using an Infrared thermometer and must be within 1 inch from the forehead.
- Game Schedule
All games will be scheduled every 2 hours with four games at a location to assist with social distancing. After the contest ends we are asking that all spectators leave the stands and go to a place where they can meet their player so the next contest spectators can be seated and ready for their game to start. Please do not go to the stands until they have cleared. If a game goes longer than expected it the next game will not start until all spectators leave and the spectators for the next contest have time to get in the stands. The time between will be decided by coaches and officials.
Please make sure you bring mask with you when you attend games. Some counties or cities might have it as a requirement if you are in a gathering of people.
