Well considering that this is in Illinois and in the Chicago area, I can bet money there are not such rules applied to the leagues at that level. Most leagues go specifically under NF rules except for those silly "striper" rules which can very from one league to another like Bill George and Pop Warner.

You have a pretty thorough knowledge of the local teams, I suppose. I don't officiate, and am still finding out about teams and leagues here in the Bronx and nearby.

One of my good friends assigns the leagues now. And having taught a football class you tend to learn these things when officials start asking you questions. I certainly know more than I want to know that is for sure.
