I think it probably won't be a major issue due to lack of participation and support. While there are some girls that would want to play football, I believe the numbers are limited. 

I have been wrong before, though; so time will tell.

And if I am wrong, then I am with Columbia on this. I don't have a problem with females playing the game as long as they are fully aware of what they are getting into and accept the risk.

I know a couple of years ago Chipley High School had a girl playing on their Varsity football team.  I personally think they should do away with gender in sports and just have the best players represent each school in every sport no matter their gender.  This would save schools money and free up space in the yearbooks that are currently covering multiple sports in each gender.  Heck this could carry over into the olympic games and we could cut that down to 1 week.:)

      Recruiting a coach

      By Proseteye · Posted

      Dillard - I'm not sure that hiring a HS football coach is the same as bringing a student on board the team. I think that any school can hire any football coach that they want any time they want. They can even hire a football coach that is currently coaching at another school. Where did you find that it's illegal?

      NIL coming to Florida? FHSAA requests public feedback

      By Proseteye · Posted

      IMO the FHSAA should simply return to the previous rules that if a student transfers from one school district to another they would be allowed to in accordance with Florida law. However, that student could only transfer for academic reasons and would have to remain out of sports for the first full season of that particular sport. As I understand it, when the Florida Legislature passed the law that allowed students to transfer anywhere and at anytime they had academics in mind. It was a law that allowed students to transfer from a poor performing school academically to a good performing school academically and not for the explicit purpose of playing a game. I wonder if the Florida Legislature fully understands what happens when students are allowed to transfer explicitly for sports and how some of those transfers seriously disturb the natural flow of events with the sports team of those schools. To make matters worse they are now proposing that some high school students, that just happen to be good at playing a game, be paid for their participation. Truly amazing.

      I seriously can't remember how many times I had to do that very thing. Like Nolebull said in another discussion, the kids know kids from other schools and where the "hot hand" is. I never entertained discussions with kids or parents of kids from other schools. I know we lost some good ones because of it but I am ok with that.
