Attendance Policy
Every player is expected to attend each practice and each game.
Excused absences include: family outings, sickness/injury, homework, religious and other classes.
Notify your coach, in advance, of any known conflicts. If no advance notice is given,
a hand-written note from a parent explaining the absence is required or it will be considered an unexcused absence.
- Playing time may be reduced with excused absences.
- Playing time will be reduced or eliminated with unexcused absences.
Playing Time Policy
Players who attend practice, are coachable, show respect for their fellow teammates, coaches, etc., and perform their assigned position in a safe manner will receive playing time on game day. Playing time will be dispensed fairly.
Weight Limit Rules
There are strictly enforced weight restrictions on players in the offensive backfield and beyond 15 yards from a kick-off.
Players OVER the limit may play any other position except those in the offensive backfield or beyond
15 yards from a kick-off.
The limits are:

no child is too heavy to play youth football with the Cyclones!
League Residency Rules
Excerpt from "AAYFL RULES" http://www.aayfl.org/aayfl_league_rules.htm
Section I. ROSTERS:
Players on rosters are required to reside in the members league designated high school district boundary.
If a player attends a school in the members high school district and his home high school district does
not field a team in the AAYFL, he can play on the team where he attends school.
a. He must play for the team whose boundaries his home residence falls within if one is available.
b. EXCEPTION: West Bend East and West are allowed to divide their teams according to school district policy based on birth date. In the event that the policy changes AAYFL membership must approve a boundary guideline.
c. EXCEPTION: boundaries of West Allis Central (Badgers) and West Allis Hale (Wolverines) will be divided by South 92nd Street.
4. Players who move into the members school district after the start of the season can be added to the team only after all required roster information has been given to the commissioner, prior to the players participation in a league game (Remember the 10 hour rule; Section H.3).
