STEP 1

1. The weights of the players are given as: $208, 211, 305, 295, 267, 288, 303, 253, 261$ .
2. The range is calculated as the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the data set.

STEP 2

1. Identify the maximum and minimum weights.
2. Calculate the range.

STEP 3

List the weights:
$208, 211, 305, 295, 267, 288, 303, 253, 261$

STEP 4

Identify the maximum weight:
$\text{Maximum} = 305$
Identify the minimum weight:
$\text{Minimum} = 208$

STEP 5

Calculate the range:
$\text{Range} = \text{Maximum} - \text{Minimum} = 305 - 208 = 97$
The range is:
$\boxed{97} \text{ pounds}$
