The House Education Committee is scheduled to hear a proposed committee bill relating to high school athletics on Thursday, March 26. This proposed bill is far reaching and the FHSAA believes it will create “free agency” of high school student-athletes.

Among many major changes, this proposed bill:

– Promotes school choice for athletic purposes – a student may attend one school and play for another;
– Prohibits private schools and school boards from adopting more stringent rules on transfers; and
– Limits ineligibility to only three (3) criteria: GPA, falsifying information, and impermissible benefits – leaving out age, years of play, etc.
