Out my way, many youth football leagues either have their own set of modifications to the normal NFHS rules or use rules modified for grades 7,8 and 9 set forth by the NYSPHSAA (don't worry about what those initial mean).
Bottom line here is this, there are only a few offensive formations allowed and in particular, only 1 receiver can be wide.
I am somewhat surprised that IHSA does not have similar set of modifications in place for the lower grade levels or that local youth leagues don't have formation restrictions in place.
