We had a few HS school and TB coaches who wanted to do away with both the "In Season" restrictions and the Dodd rule. We implored the ADs of the high schools in our district to reject the motion to repeal the rule and won, at least for now. I know plenty of folks in OC who would love to have at least the "In Season" restrictions we have here. ...
Please clarify what you mean by "In Season" restrictions? Is that what's covered in 600.2 IN THE CIFSDS OUTSIDE SEASON OF SPORT (i.e. limits what HS programs can do out of season)?
What "saves them from having to deal with their coaches from August until February"? I don't see 600.2 as doing it nor the 2-week no-contact period.
The first step for anyone that wants these rules is to get them passed in the section. If enough sections do that, you might have a chance at having CIF pass them statewide. I wouldn't hold my breath though, Both CIF and CIF-SD had proposals to loosen restrictions rather than to tighten them.
