Question on playing rules
« on: September 24, 2020, 09:55:15 pm »
My team is now down to 11 players. I lost two starting offensive linemen in the last 24 hours.

Can you play with 10 players or do I have to forfeit?

I have two 2 strippers do I have to play with 9 on special teams?

I just went through the rulebook and I do not see anything that directly addresses your issue.  My gut says you will probably forfeit but in today's environment, I would reach out to the opposing coach and ask him to play 10 on 10.  I see nothing wrong with doing that just to get the kids as much playing time as possible.

Get ahold of infc. When my freshman was in 6th grade we had a similar situation. They worked with us as well as our opponents.

I’m actually good for today I’ll have 12. I still don’t know what to do about special teams because I can only play 10 this week.
