Any other PA guys here have the final say on the new totally ridiculous heat acclimation rules we have to follow? We were told by one person we could go wed. thrs. fri. before the official first day but then heard from someone else it would have to be thrs. fri. sat. before the first day to avoid there being more than 48 hours in between the first official day and the last heat acclimation practice. Also anyone know if there is a required time on the heat acclimation days?

Sounds and feels like the HURDLE rule. Try to find two officials on the same page on that one. I dare you! As coaches we just need to adapt at what they are throwing at us. In my opinion most coaches have adapted to the safer tackling techniques but I never see Officials call the defense for spearing.

We are going to do the same thing as last year. The non-mandatory/mandatory 3 days is ridiculous. We are going to practice in helmets and shoulder pads the first 3 days. Only major change is our first "live" stuff will be thursday. With a scrimmage sat. there is not a lot of time to evaluate who can/will hit.

Well, I didn't see the updated version. That's tough.
Sounds like it'll be up to the respective schools though re: starting the prior week? I'd have a hard time imaging any school denying an early start.

Its a CYA for us, dont agree with it b/c our summer workouts we are helmets and shoulder pads prior any ways. When you look at other states and what they have in terms of this I think we are fairly easy to follow.

You can go Wed/Thur/Fri, however we have been doing this for 7 years, so it won't be that big of a deal for us. We usually go Mon - Fri. Our policy is going to be simple attend the Wed-Fri practices or you will not be getting the same number of reps as guys that do attend in the 1st scrimmage. Also they will have to do their acclimatization on Mon - Wed when everyone is in full gear and hitting.
