Do you have any info on summer camps? I coach in the northern section & I was told the camp we have been going to is on but the "language" of what is deemed "live" or "going to the ground" will be changed. I am curious to know what others have heard.

Good luck with that Camps will have to happen later in the summer (no contact outside of pre season and in season Pre season defined as 30 days prior to season starting)
The language of the law says something like Contact at game like speeds So saying we only went "thud" would not hold up in court The contact was at game like speed OL/DL one on ones even though it isn't full team still have contact at game like speeds for them so that's counts into your 90 minutes of time 2x per week

I really want to see some legal position papers from the CIF & sections about what is/is not legal. My real concern with this is that this is a state law, not a CIF/section rule. I can just see a sheriff showing up at practice and arresting someone for practicing too long.
Camps are pretty much dead now in CA.

You'll see some lawsuits because some coaches won't know details or claim ignorance
I've had people tell me they'll just take their team out of state to a camp
I think that is illegal Cuz the law applies to CA teams Not teams doing practice in only California
Also read somewhere that if 11 or more kids attend a padded college camp the HC would get fined and subject to arrest

Just for curiosity sake, cdud are you still having a camp? If I remember right, that was a big fund raiser for you.

I can't say 100% until CIF releases their official statement which we are supposed to get in January Now, the way I've seen the law written I fully believe I will be able to have my camp But only 2 days instead of 3 Less contact time (90 minutes total) And it will likely have to be first week of August , depends when CIF defines the start of our season Can use pads in pre season which is 30 days prior to start of regular season If they use first gamers start it'll be first week of August If they use scrimmage as start it'll be last week of July If they use what our section has used in past, usually a Monday in early August to designate the start of football season it'll be sooner than that My guess is we will get a set date like no pads until August 1 or something like that Hopefully we get our fact sheet soon

Got my fingers crossed, I know important fund raisers are. Also, having stuff like that gets kids better.
