[ayso45-refs] U7 Slide Tackling

I asked the question too because we were being slide tackled like  
crazy when we played the Blue Dolphins (just one example) and my kids  
were asking why "they were doing what we told them they couldn't do."  
This needs to be clarified as it creates a sense of unfairness for the  
kid and frustration for the coaches.

Thanks,

Brian
