QUARTERBACK SAFE TIME, 3 seconds safe time allowed until the quarter back can be rushed. This has been reduced from 5 seconds used in previous years.
QUARTER BACK SNEAK, The Quarterback may run past the line of scrimmage only after the 3 seconds have expired.
NEW RULE, The quarter back has 10 seconds to get rid of the ball. Should the quarterback keep the ball more then 10 seconds he is down at the spot he was standing when the whistle was blowen.
PLAYER LIMITATIONS, Each team may have a maximum of 11 players on the field at any one time while there is a live play on the field. Any more then 11 will result in a penelty of 5 yards. It is possible to play with less then 11 players if desired by the team captain. Team substitutions will be made by the coaches of each team.
COACHES, Each team may have a coach to be determined on game day.
