Oh those rules
Our team is involved in a curious clash with the rules, and when folks found out about our little “issue”, several parents contacted me and asked me to explain what the heck was going on. I decided to use the team’s newsletter to attempt to explain something that confuses a lot of people. When I got done I realized just how complicated and overwhelming the rules can be, so I thought since I'd already spent the time writing it for the team, it might benefit someone else out there.
