The All -Star games will be held in Vallejo.  The all-star team make-up including head coach is listed at the end of this document.

Practice cannot start until the Championship games are over.  Players can expect to hear from coaches no later than Tuesday November 24.  If a player has not heard from the head coach by that date, the player should contact their league president (who should contact Denise and/or the president of the person who is head coach of the All-Star team) to make contact for the player.

Nor Cal has published the number of all-star players at 4 per team.  All-stars are selected from your team in the order filled out on the form. There may be alternate all-stars so you can list more than 4 all-stars if you have them.  All-stars MUST be at the game to receive their All-Star Medal.

There is only one mandatory practice and that is on Saturday before the game.  The mandatory practice can be up to 3 hours as long as one hour is chalk talk and does not involve physical activity.

The head coach is responsible to find a practice field and will set the time and location of the practice.  Head coaches are expected to practice at their association’s local high school and are responsible to arrange for a practice facility.  Coaches can set up one optional practice during the week for 2 hours.

NOTE: Players must bring their own equipment including the appropriate dark or white jersey and must bring their individual PLAYER CARD (no birth certificate needed).   DO NOT GIVE THE PLAYER CARD TO ANYONE.  THE PLAYER SHOULD SHOW IT TO PROVE IDENTITY AND GIVE THE CARD BACK TO HIS ASSOCATION ALONG WITH THE EQUIPMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR CERTIFICATION.

THE ALL-STAR PROCEDURE IS LISTED BELOW:

4.0 – NORCAL PROCEDURES REGARDING ALL-STARS

NOTE: This procedure does not apply to the Conference Midget or 8^th grade all-star team that competes at Nationals.. Every team represented by a player at the Nor Cal all-star games must have a coach from that association on the coaches roster.

1. All-Star games will be played on the Cadet through 15U levels. Games MUST BE HELD ON A SUNDAY so teams can practice the Saturday before the games.
2. ALL-STAR SELECTION FORMULA
   Each team will have 4 all-stars per team selected by their association and submitted on schedule to the conference. Additional players may be named all-stars (i.e. extra players of need for the game or extra all-stars for D1 and D2 champs etc…) if teams or players drop after the deadline.
3. 22 different players must start. Players are not allowed to go both ways unless necessary due to the total number of available players falls under 22. MPR rules must be followed.
4. No blitzing. Only defensive lineman can rush the ball carrier. No more than 6 players can line up on the line of scrimmage and be considered defensive lineman.
5. The head coach of the Home and Visiting all-star teams will be offered to the head coach with the best record AMONG HIS AREA GROUP (other than a team traveling to Florida). If that coach declines than the coach with the next best record for the home or visitors side will be offered.
6. All head coaches must provide a list of their all-stars in order of selection (a form will be provided). Each head coach must fill out the form with a list of players including their phone numbers in order of selection, alternating between backs and lineman and submit the information at the required time before the end of the regular season.
7. The Head coach selects his assistant coaches from the volunteers but must include one representative from each participating team. The head coach is also responsible for determining the process for naming the starters for his all-star team and is responsible to set practice times and days (no more than 3 practice days including the Saturday before the game).
8. FOR SAFETY REASONS A PLAYER MAY NOT PLAY IN AN ALL—STAR GAME UNLESS HE HAS ATTENDED AT LEAST ONE PRACTICE UNLESS APPROVED BY THE HEAD COACH (i.e. player plays for an all-star coach all year and knows the system etc…)

There must be a mandatory practice on Saturday the day before the game

Please advise players they must bring their own association equipment including game jersey to the practice and the game.

If kids decline to play or do not show up at the mandatory Saturday practice, the Head coaches are responsibility to fill the squad and should add players from his own team and from assistant coaches teams to fill openings,  YOU MUST HAVE PROOF THE PLAYER WAS CONTACTED AND DELINED TO PLAY (HAVE THEM SEND YOU AN EMAIL IF NEEDED)

COACHES MUST CONTACT PLAYERS BY TUESDAY NIGHT. Roster can be obtained from Denise the Nor Cal Secretary.  Coaches should make sure you call your players from a cell phone so we can easily resolve any dispute where a player says he was not contacted by the head coach.

PLEASE DIRECT ALL ROSTER AND COACH CONTACT QUESTIONS TO Denise who will be sending your rosters to your president if you are selected as Head Coach.
