Local CYO Rules

Let's see if I rmeber our local CYO rules (I'm 2 years removed)...

1] No pressing before December 1st. Pressing allowed ater Jan 1 as long as you're not up by 10+ (4th-6th grade) or 20 (7th/8th grade). Pressing being defined as backcourt defense or trapping above the three point line. Penalty: Warning followed by T's.

2] On the 4th-6th level each player must appear in 2 quarters but notmore than 3. If a game goes into overtime, there are no restrictions.

3] If a team is up by 20, they must keep 2 starters out of the game. If a team is up by 30, all starters must leave the game. Penalty: Same as #1 above

4] No three pointers on 4th-6th level. Allowed in 7th-8th level. Also, if a school has it's own gym without 3 point lines, it's an automatic forfeit loss. If the school uses another facility's gym, the requirement doesn't apply.

I have my opinions on these, but on the whole I appreciate what they are trying to do.
