of SAFL players. To insure we have a fun and safe season SAFL will strive to
have the best possible qualified equipment. SAFL will also verify that equipment
is properly fitted per certification requirements with USA Football.

Parents can supply their own equipment but must be approved by an SAFL
certified individual or organization prior for use. Parent are allowed to keep
