sub / too many quarters

[CYO Butch]

One of our divisions has a participation rule that says each player must play one full quarter without interuption, and must sit out one entire quarter (you must have at least 7 to start game for it to work). If you don't abide by the rule, it becomes a forfeit. If a player shows up late, it is conceivable that the coach looks down the bench and sees him/her for the first time (late players tend to sneak in to avoid getting yelled at) and realizes that he/she has to get into the beginning of the quarter or face a forfeit. If it happened to me, I would probably accept having to burn a TO, but I would be really upset at having to wait for the next dead ball and thus break the participation rule. That would be even more harsh than getting T'd up (which I might earn if I wasn't allowed to get the player in the game).
