FALL 2014 Free Agents

Teams are set with spots available for Free-Agents for the Fall CCFL 2014 Season.

The 5-on-5 format will be the same for all divisions. We’ve implemented two major changes to the format which has been a great success in both the summer league and the summer tournament we hosted. These changes are (1) An automatic 1pt or an option for 2pt PAT after a touchdown is scored (2) 3 additional plays at the end of regulation for each half with no game clock running – only a play clock (your team’s huddle).

We will continue to use the full-size field with 2 first downs. Each team will only have 1 time-out per half where an unused time-out will carry over for use in the second half. We will still have a one minute warning in the second half only with a clock stoppage. There will be no other clock stoppage, only at the official’s discretion.

The 2014 Free Agent Fee is:
$120 Free Agent Fee (includes team shirt)
Fees include referees and game-time belts.

We will have a league bye-week with an option to play on Columbus Day Weekend and a bye-week Thanksgiving Day Sunday. Each team will be given approximately 3/4 double headers and/or 4/5 single games during the regular season. Each team will be guaranteed 12 games which will include a play-in game and/or a playoff game. Flex-scheduling request will be granted first come to Captains of teams only, first served for the first 8 games of the season. Once we hit Charlestown, it is hard to manage requests since we are limited with the number of fields. I will only take requests from Captains of teams and all requests must be made via email (Subject GAME REQUEST) on the Monday morning before noon prior to your next game.
