New Rules

[Nconroe]

A few changes in rules for 2011 season.

Overall, it seems a lot of injuries occurred on kickoffs so they tried to address this
1. kickoff from 35 rather than 30, more likely to go into endzone and have a touchback.
2. kicking team only 5 yard run-up rather than 15 to I guess keep speed down a little.
3. two other suggested changes were not made, keeping a two man wedge and keeping touchback is to 20 yard line.
Getting it right on scores another concern, so, now every score will have an automatic booth review.

Overall, seems okay to me.
