As the 2012 season approaches, there have been a few changes which have occurred to the Beaver County League during this off-season. The most important change is regarding the weight of each age level. The league has adopted two weights at each age level: one for the maximum weight in which a player can compete, and another weight to be able to play the “skilled” positions.
For the Midget level, the weight limit is now 165lbs, with the skilled weight limit at 155lbs. All players who weigh between 156lbs and 165lbs are limited to offensive and defensive positions from “Tackle to Tackle”. All players who weigh 155lbs and less can play any position, including the “Skilled” positions (i.e. QB, RB, End, LB, Cornerback, Safety).
For the Mitey Mite level, the respective weights are 140lbs & 130lbs.
For the Termite level, the respective weights are 115lbs & 105lbs.
For the Twerp level, the respective weights are 95lbs & 85lbs.
