Clarification of the New Football Pre-Season Practice Rule

Some questions have arisen about the wording of "practices in shorts" and "days in full pads". The intent of the committee was to keep track of days rather than practices since multiple practices may be held in one day.

During the first five calendar days in August, AT LEAST two days must have practices with players dressed in shorts, helmets, and shoulder pads. The other three days MAY include practices that have players in full pads, but no more than two consecutive days may have full pads in usage. Coaches are not required to have any practices in full pads the first week.

Here is a POSSIBLE option:
Day 1: Shorts
Day 2: Full pads
Day 3: Shorts
Day 4: Full pads
Day 5: Full pads

Atlanta Falcons Need Your School's Helmet

The Atlanta Falcons are requesting your school’s football helmet to add to the GHSA Helmet Wall at the Georgia Dome. Currently there are 120 schools whose helmets are not included in the display. Click here for a list of missing schools as of 1-21-09. The helmet can be used or new, but must be a large size. Those high schools that have not sent their helmet are encouraged to contact Kendyl Moss, Director of Community Relations for the Atlanta Falcons at 404-367-2064 or kmoss@falcons.nfl.com; 4400 Falcon Parkway, Flowery Branch, GA 30542.
