*Rule 2: Each team must be made up of a certain number of players (in total) from the following groups.
*Children 13 years old and under
*Female players of any age
*"Large" players. (Sorry, I don't know any way to be politically correct about this group
)
The reason for teams being forced to include certain types of players is simple. Normally, when getting together a touch football team, you go for a certain type of player - the young, fit, male speed machine. It is simply not fair that people from other categories, such as those listed above, be excluded from the chance to participate in these competitions, especially since the major idea of the comps are to have fun and enjoy yourself with other league fans.
The number of players required for each team depends on how many players there are in the squad in total:
10 or less players - 4
11 or 12 players - 5
13 or 14 players - 6
It is not necessary to have players from each group listed above. As long as the total number of players that meet the above groups are played, then a team will not be penalised. For example, a team of 12 may have 3 children under 13, and 2 females, but no large players. This is acceptable.
Looks like we might have abit of a problem, we need 6 chicks/big fellas/kids.
Well we got 2 so far as Ben can be considered a big fella judging by what I saw of him last time (No disrespect mate), and I'm pretty sure Northey can be considered a chick so we need a few more so called disadvantage players. Astrogirl when you reckon you can tell me for sure if you can make it or not?
