NSAA district legislative meetings will be held Nov. 7 and 9. The football proposals up for action at those meetings:
1) Classify schools by how many boys they have in grades 9, 10, and 11 -- a change from using boys-girls combined enrollments
2) Use enrollment cutoffs, not predetermined limits, in classification. Class A would include schools with at least 425 boys, Class B 160, Class C1 70. Class C2 would include the remaining 11-man schools. In 8-man, 33 would be the cutoff for Class D1, the remaining would be in D2.
3) Set 47 boys as the cutoff for determining playoff eligibility in 8-man football. That correlates to an increase of 11 from the current 83 limit
4) Bring 6-man football back as an NSAA sanctioned sport. There are currently 25 schools playing 6-man this year and next. More schools are looking into it, including as many as six more in southwest Nebraska alone.
