2008 Rule Changes

Version 10 of the rules approved
on 10-1-08 are now available

You can now download the latest rules that were approved on 10-1-08.  The biggest change was a cheerleading rule which is as follows:

27.21 AWARDS
a)  Trophies will be awarded to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in two cheer competition categories:


        1 – Large Category for Pee Wee, Super Midget, Midget and Varsity divisions
        2 – Small Category for Pee Wee, Super Midget, Midget and Varsity divisions

b)  Only teams that place 1st, 2nd, or 3rd in each category will be announced.  All other places (4th, 5th and 6th) will be presented participant awards after the Cheer Off event.

c)  Category sizes (Large and Small) will be determined each year based on the Cheer rosters of record the Saturday prior to the Cheer Off competition.  Each division (Pee Wee, Super Midget, Midget and Varsity) will have the Large and Small categories determined.  There must be six organizations in each category (Large and Small) for each division (Pee Wee, Super Midget, Midget and Varsity).  Category sizes will be based on cheerleader roster numbers per division not per organization.

d)  There will be no conference champions for Cheer Off, but one Grand Champion trophy will be awarded to the one team with the highest total score in the Cheer Off competition.  The winners of each category (Large and Small) for all divisions (Pee Wee, Super Midget, Midget and Varsity) will be eligible for the Grand Champion trophy.

e)  The Mighty Mite division will not be placed based on their scores.

There are many other rule changes for the 2008 season that were approved earlier so you might want to make sure you have the current copy available.  Please download a copy of the new rules (version 10) and become familiar with the rules that all players, coaches, parents and volunteers must adhere to.

Current News

$2 Admission

Starting in 2008 all TBYFL games will have a $2.00 Admission for anyone over the age of 14.

Coaches registered with TBYFL and wearing the proper Hillsborough County  certification lanyard will not be required to pay the $2.00 admission.  The $2.00 admission will be collected at ALL fields (Skyway, Oldsmar and Progress Village).

The money generated from the admission will be used to offset the cost of field maintenance which was turned over to TBYFL from Hillsborough County this year due to the budget cuts the county is experiencing.


Practice Time

Practice time is limited to 6 hours of practice a week starting on Monday 8-18-08.  No practice can be held after 9 pm without league approval.
