Rules:2024
When a team has enough players(6)to start the game, in order for that game not to be called a forfeit the team must play the first half of the game not just one play and walk out. I work with all of you on scheduling so I don't think it fair for a team not to play a game when your players don't show up. I know each situation will be different so refs will call SWFFL members to make the final decision.  If any of you feel that I should do this differently please give me a call I am always open to suggestions. 915-253-9853
1a. If a team wants to protest a player must be done before the end of the half not the end of the game.
1. All teams must be in the same similar color jersey or shirt by the THIRD WEEK OF SEASON. This goes for all Divisions. If one player does not have the same color of Jersey or Shirt that player will not be allowed to play.
2. Mushroom Flags Allowed in all Division.
3. If a team forfeits they are responsible for paying refs fees which is $50
4. If a player is caught playing with two teams other than coed that player will not be allowed to play with any other team that season.
5. Ref fees must be paid at the beginning of each game during ID check which is also at the beginning of each game. 
6. Only show refs IDs of players that are there and ready to play the game.
7. The flag must not match players' short color.
8. No Pockets, including back pockets.
9. No protective gear of any kind ex.( football girdle) or anything that adds padding to the waist area of the body.
10. If a player is suspended for fighting in one division that player will not be allowed to play in any division for SWFFL.
11. Initiating contact will not be allowed

RULE ADJUSTMENTS

·      Any offensive player who throws themselves into the defensive player will be flagged for illegal contact.

·      Defensive players who create contact EX: dropping a shoulder, pushing out of bounds, or creating excessive contact on the flag pull will also be flagged.

·      This is a non-contact league; it is understood this is football but creating contact intentionally will be flagged.

 

·      Shirts must be tucked in at all times, it is the players' responsibility to keep the shirt tucked in.

 

·      Teams must enforce these rules for teammates ultimately you are in charge of your own team.

 

·      Illegal equipment – flags shorter than 12in, inverted flags and pockets will be a 15yd unsportsmanlike penalty, loss of down and NO longer a turnover of the ball.

·      Hats may be worn as long as they are worn with the bill backwards.

·      COED a FEMALE QB can use a women’s ball BUT cannot throw back for a male to make a forward pass. Any pass over the line of scrimmage made by a male must be a full-size football.

 ALL Shrummz and Poppers are allowed in all divisions must be 12 in minimum in length. 

GAME REQUESTS, SCHEDULING & ROSTERS

·      Game times will run as accurately as possible, if games are behind the Refs will be asking teams to run through the half in order to catch up, no game time should have shaved in order to catch up.

·      All game requests must be sent by EMAIL, texts to commissioners will no longer be accepted.

·      Schedule requests MUST be in by Monday 7:00pm the week of the games.

·      If changes are needed after the schedule comes out, they need to be in no later than Thursday 9:00pm of that week.

·      If changes are asked for later than Thursday, we will attempt to fill the game. If it cannot be filled your team is responsible for the $50 forfeit fee.

·      Teams who request BYE weeks please understand you may not meet the required games in a season. We will do our best to give you catch up games but know it may not be possible.

·      Teams may end up with more games in a season if they pick up games when availability comes up.

·      Rosters MUST be updated and accurate.

·      We will no longer be clearing players if they do not have IDS, dates will be set so you can pick them up and have them made. IT is your responsibility or your team captains to have the IDs.

·      ALL Team captains need to have PHONE NUMBERS on the team roster, so update your profiles.

·      NIGHT LEAGUE will require IDS this season, as well as rosters.

·      ID Cutoff will be week three of the season, no new IDS will be made for players after week three if they are not already in the system for that team. (Example a player loses an ID it can be remade if they are on file of having one already) IF the player does not show they have had one made already it will be denied.

·      All players must make an attempt to get an ID before week three of the season.

·      Players may NOT switch teams in the middle of a season, WEEK 3 is finalization of rosters.

Coed Rule

 

                              CO-ED RULE

 

                                                            (As of 10/2/2022)

Article 1. Touchdowns

  • 6 points awarded for all male participation
  • 9 points awarded for female participation as the operative player.

Article 1. Extra Points

1 point awarded for all male participation play from 3 yard line

 

  • 2 points awarded for all male participation from 10 yard line
  • 2 points awarded for female participation play from 3 yard line. Only qualifies if it fulfills all Operative Player requirements above (i.e. if a male passes to a male and then simply hands off or pitches to a female just before crossing the goal line, this is not a 2 or 3 point play).
  • 3 points awarded for female participation play from 10 yard li

 

 

 

By the third (3rd) offensive play regardless of when it occurs (s) in the Co-Ed League (only) A FEMALE PLAYER “” MUST”” BE INVOLVED IN THE PLAY.  Getting a first down in regards to this rule does not matter.  A female is involved in the play by being the QB, Quasi (and the ball is thrown to her), having the ball laterally pitched to her, having a pass thrown to her (referee’s judgment), or run/running with the ball.  In regards to this rule a female is not involved in the play if she centers the ball, only goes out for a pass and the ball is not thrown to her, in the Quasi position and the ball is not passed to her, in the QB position and the ball is snapped to another male player, or on defense and intercepts the ball.  If on defense and intercepts the ball, male or female, and in the process of returning the ball, pitches, fumbles forward, or lose the ball in the air and the ball is caught by an original offensive female/male player this “”Will  Not”” count as being involved in the 3rd play. Being involved by the 3rd play must be done in an offensive capacity. Penalty for this Co-Ed rule violation is 10 yds and loss of down.

 

In addition to the new Co-Ed Rule officials calling in these games will be required to say--loud enough for teams to hear you—that the play is open or close. Open means any team member can be involved in the play. Close means a female player “MUST” be involved in that play. Also on a close play, the team is allowed to have all females on the field other teams no changes required.

Sorry for change any questions please call or text at 915-253-9853
