In normal "games", I would think that such a player would not be allowed to play based on:

"Each state association may, in keeping with applicable laws, authorize exceptions to NFHS playing rules to provide reasonable accommodations to individual participants with disabilities and/or special needs, as well as those individuals with unique and extenuating circumstances. The accommodations should not fundamentally alter the sport, heighten risk to the athlete/others or place opponents at a disadvantage."

To play with one leg, the sport would certainly be fundamentally altered, risk would certainly be heightened, and the athlete would be placed at a huge disadvantage.

Not to make fun of such a situation, but the player could never obtain legal guarding position.
