NOTES:

 

1. The Maximum Weights are effective for the first game of the season. All weight limits for each level will increase by one­half pound per week for the entire season, including any playoff games. The Maximum Weights include minimum clothing and/or pad requirements.

 

2. Player age as of September 1. Players cannot be enrolled in High School.

 

3. “Younger/Heavier Exception ­Double Striper” players must be approved prior to game play by the TCYFL Executive Board and League Council, with a maximum of one “Double Striper” per team.

 

4. A team may roster no more than six “Younger/Heavier Stripers”, no more than one of which may be a “Double Striper” player. A maximum of three “Younger/Heavier Stripers”, including no more than one “Double Striper”, may be on the field at any one time.

Each weight/age division will be split into one Big 10 team and as many PAC 10 teams as players are available – everyone will be on a team and play. Featherweight and Middleweight may also have one Mac10 team depending on the amount of players at those levels.  Big 10, Mac 10, and PAC 10 teams travel to away games and play home games in Huntley at Marlow Middle School.
