In Massachusetts teams cannot even (legally) start practicing until the Monday after Thanksgiving.

Same here in Connecticut. Girls start practicing here on the Monday before Thanksgiving. State finals in most fall sports were held this past weekend. Regular season football ends on Thanksgiving, with state playoffs to soon follow.

Practice for both girls and boys was allowed to begin Nov. 20th. The season for both starts Dec 11th. PA moved it back a week because teams that were still in the football playoffs were complaining about not having players. Also PA has deducted 2 games from teams schedule. I think the max a team can play during the regular season is 22. The State Championships are March 20th or so.
