Definitions:
1. Ball Carrier: Any player that has the opportunity normally granted the ability to advance the ball (i.e. receivers,
quarterbacks, running backs, tight-ends, etc.) Tight-ends that are not going to be used as receivers but rather strictly
as blockers are not subject to this. Using a player that is Ball Carrier Ineligible to receive a pass or run with the
football will be grounds for discipline for the offending team of coaches.
2. Weight Restrictions: the high weight limit for a player to play within the division
3. Max Ball Carrier Weight: the max weigh at which a player is eligible to be positioned as a Ball Carrier,
regardless of whether the player carriers the ball (see above)
