Questions for CA coaches

Do you know if the 18 hour rule applies to summer months or just in season?

As far as I know it begins on the official start date of football as determined by your section

So then does spring ball count towards 18 hours, as football season is over? What I read led me to believe that if an athlete is in another sport he cannot have over 18 hours all told, so spring ball + track cannot be over 18.

Each Section is different. Here are our Section rules on Spring

Practice is allowed Monday–Friday for 1.5 hours/
day. Saturday practice may be extended for up to
4 hours. However, a maximum of 8 hours/week
is allowed, including Monday-Saturday. Sunday
practices are not allowed.
• No outside competition of any kind is permitted
during the Limited Period.
• For the sport of football, the use of any football
equipment will not be allowed during the limited
period (See Bylaw 1903.3).
• All football activities must meet the provisions of
CIF Sac-Joaquin Section bylaws 1903.1, 1903.2 and
1903.3.

I think this CIF rule comes from the state and applies to all sections
