CIF,WHAT NEW RULE?

[sb junkie]

Sorry guys,I've been in the dark.What the heck happened to no softball til Feb?

[Sftbll4ever]

Just went to the CIF page and I see nothing regarding no softball till February. As a matter of fact, we are having practice and conditioning starting today and 3 times a week until we are in season.

The new association rule allowes the coaches to work with the teams AFTER 6th period.

Hope this clears up your question. This was the old rule that has been removed from the 2008-2009 season. High School Coaches can now even coach Club Ball or Travel Ball if they want and it does not matter if thier players play on the High School Team anymore. They can also hold practices

<>2503. ORGANIZED TEAM PRACTICE ( INVALID FOR THE 2008-09 SCHOOL YEAR )
Organized team practice shall be interpreted as meaning the association of a coach with potential team members for the purpose of learning or practicing
the skills of softball.
Organized before and after-school team practice may not be conducted until February 11. Before February 11, coaches may associate with potential team
members for the purpose of learning or practicing skills of softball only during one regular physical education class.

Although CIF has eliminated the assosiation rule, they ARE enforcing the noncompete rule, which says if a player travels to your school from outside its borders, then the coach cannot coach them outside of hs ball. This keeps a coach from having his entire travel ball team transfer to his school. Right now I can think of one JACKASS that is in violation of this rule.
