So I'm having a little bit of an issue, and was wondering if I could solicit some advice. I coach in California, where we are required to have a 3 week dead period. During the dead period only weight lifting is allowed, NO running.
Well I show up today, and our head coach tells our players to go with Coach X (who is not a coach with our program). Coach X takes them down to the field where they warm up, and agility drills are set up. I ask the HC if this is a violation of the rules? He tells me no, because the coach is not officially on our staff but with a training service. He then tells me to wait in the weight room, not to go on the field (he had to leave for a meeting).
The kids ran, and did agility work for about 45 minutes before coming into the wt. room.
So I guess I have two questions-
1) those of you familiar with CA dead period rules, is this okay? Did we just exploit a loophole in the system or are we violating a rule?
2) If we are violating a rule, how would you handle the situation (ie in my shoes)?
Thank you.
