Player Weigh-In Player Weight Verification Player Weight Management
Each league can set their own date and time for weigh-in for team placement. Each league shall provide a full and complete roster for each team to the other leagues prior to the first week of games and each coach shall have a full roster with all pertinent information on them at all games and be able to provide this roster at any time. Anytime throughout the season that a coach or a parent has concerns that a player is over the running weight or over the single striper weight and could be a safety concern, they must file a complaint with their league official.
Each league must do an additional weigh-in for any player that was within 5 lbs. of the running weight or within 5 lbs. of the single striper weight. This will apply to kids that are 5 lbs. above or below the weight limit for running and/or being a single striper. This weigh-in will take place on the Monday of the first week of inter-league games. This roster shall include team name, player name, jersey number, and weight. Each leagues board of directors shall analyze this complaint and see if it warrants concern. If there is a rule concern, that league can issue a re-weigh complaint to the league in which the kid in question plays for. This weigh shall be done before the next played game and shall be witnessed by a league official from both leagues involved (In-person is recommended however, Facetime is sufficient).
If a player is found to be over the weight limit during a complaint check anytime throughout the season, that player will be placed into the single or double striper category for the remainder of the year.
Additionally, the Head Coach may be subject to a suspension and/or may be banned from the league permanently if deemed necessary by their leagues Board of Directors.
