The county allows the Mid Maryland football league to play on all the same fields as Hoco lax with unlimited weight players at the 8th grade level along with 8th grade holdbacks and 9th grade OBLs. There are 8th grade football players that are close to 300 lbs playing against 120 lb kids. The county has yet to ban certain players or teams in football because they pose an extra risk of a lawsuit or compromise player safety. So my guess is you won't see it in lacrosse either.
