My thinking was to come up with MCFA rules, treating the MFCA as a League unto itself, in the hope that if they contained elements from the major rule sets they would become a standard or recognized rule set accross the country. They would not replace independent league rules, but be an additional rules set that could be used anywhere, at any time. You say MFCA rules, EVERYONE knows exactly what you are talking about.

We should break down the 5 or 6 basic rules sets, and perhaps discuss what may be common elements (i.e. front of base (fob)) tackling on runs from scrimmage, or any touch, whatever) and come up with a base set, like George said. Perhaps MFCA members could vote on the rules they like in each category.

We have the rules from the convention. I really believe the hobby would be helped by a base set of rules, and the MFCA COACHES association is the best vehicle to do this. If each league can contribute to the rules, we can have a real conglomeration with something for everyone.....

We really need to work on this.
