Would somebody give us non-Texas dudes a quick summary of the new rules? low income schools felt that the ability of wealthier schools kids to hire private position trainers created an unfair advantage since the rules stipulate we as coaches couldn't do football drills with kids over the summer. so the rule has changed to allow for 1 hour each week of football related activity outside of the normal strength and conditioning workout. The problem is nobody knows exactly what a football related activity really is, some teams will just do some individual type stuff and drive on, others will have a full blown practice once a week with the extra time Technically, it is sport-specific activity. What are you going to do for the kids that want to do a different sport besides football for that 1 hour, or even part of the time? That's another tricky part of the equation to maneuver as well.

VB knee pads - Our school/district policy is that anything that is required to be worn we must provide. 1 time. So when we get a new player, incoming Freshmen, transfer, whatever, we give them the 'player pack' that has a t-shirt, shorts, vb knee pads, and 5-pad girdle. The team/boosters pay for this because we can't have the players fundraise for gear that they have to have. After that if they lose something, want additional gear, grow out of it, they are on the hook for purchasing it from the team store we setup with our primary vendor. The team store will have additional items they can purchase, but we don't use it as a fundraiser. Last year was our first year going to the shorts and knee pads and it worked really well. I think they wore practice pants 2-3 times all year. Much cooler, kids felt faster, lighter, etc. I'm assuming you mean volleyball knee pads? If so, is that enough protection? Is it allowed by the rules? Do yall wear regular football knee pads on Friday night or do you wear game pants over the VB knee pads? Sorry for all the questions. This is interesting to me. When we used volleyball knee pads, we just used them for practice and the kids wore shorts, made it a little cooler for the hot days. Friday nights we wore game pants with regular knee pads in, that were only used for games. We lost a lot less football knee pads those years.

If you do happen to find another alternative though, please share, as I am all ears on this front.

Unless your wife is not in the school system and you are able to get on under her insurance, the best bet is to go through the healthcare market place. You will still likely pay about $400-$600, but its much better than double that what you would be paying through the school.

I have driven the bus for current school and previous schools, and all have given a fee for each trip. They have all been different, but have ranged from $15-$35 per trip, flat rate regardless if the trip was 3 hours or 15 minutes.
