This topic can be debated 1000 times over, and nothing will change. KHSAA is a spineless organization that has all these rules and regulations they have no way of enforcing. Taylor Co boys basketball is proof, kids moving down there living with guardians, or grandparents for 1 reason only, basketball. Complain and make all the excuses you want, parents are the sole reason these kids are moving, and its for sports.

When a thread is made to soley attack a kid, or parent, is mind boggling to me. Why do some feel the need to question the motives of the family, it is their business, and no one else. I been down this road. As parents, we took our daughter to a school where she would benefit most on what she did best, and thats play ball. Her experience there was 2nd to none, and received a scholarship. Threads was made, addresses published, phone numbers hung on posters at the rival schools. Blame KHSAA, they are clueless. Nobody recruited her, the school and it's known history made us enroll her into the school. She is debt free, has a degree and is set for life. No coach in our district would have pushed her, been patient, and enabled her to reach her life goals.

Bottom line, school should be fun, happy times, and no need to waste talent just because you live in a certain district. KHSAA doesn't care about all these kids moving around, why should people who post on the forum. KHSAA just hopes 90% follows the intended guide lines, and all is well. I can name kids all across the state who transferred in different sports the past 20 years, and nothing will change the next 20.

Is this the number one issue confronting the KHSAA? I can't think of anything that threatens the character of the organization and its school members more than this one.

I think so and I agree with 5th region. However, the problem today is some do follow the rules. So now you have advantages because some choose to follow rules and some choose to push them as far as they can. To get rid of the spineless perception, they either have to enforce the rules totally or throw out the transfer and recruiting rules and just let kids go wherever they want. I'm fine with either way, but today it causes issues between the parents, kids and programs that follow the rules and the others that choose not to or OR choose to push the limits of every loophole.

The problem is the apparent inconsistent enforcement of the rules. How they let some kids play while they deny others seems to be at random. As stated previously, they should assign a case number to each request and publish why they did or did not approve the transfer.

Absolutely, if HHS breaks rules they should be, as should HC.

 

Agree! I tell people all the time in Kenton Cty that make accusations to call the KHSAA but remember, no hiding who you are. Have to tell them or they won't listen. Always shuts them up. Hahaha! Makes for fun conversations though.

I'm just glad she doesn't play football.

No but I heard she was a very good FastPitch pitcher back in the day, I think HHS lost their pitcher to graduation if I'm not mistaken. LOL just kidding, have to have a little fun.

With the dead period over, will we hear or see more on this?

Pretty sure the dead period goes until July 17th.

Who really cares what anymore? She had a good year play ball for NDA last year.

1. Got a offer to continue playing in college

2. Scored over 1,000 pts in High School.

 

I hope it all works out for her because she's fun to watch. The million dollar question, how does she fit into HHS offense.

Pretty sure the dead period goes until July 17th.

 

Nope. The dead period ended on July 9th at 11:59pm.

 

Sec. 3) SUMMER DEAD PERIOD

Students may not receive coaching or training from school

personnel (either salaried or non salaried) and school facilities,

uniforms, nicknames, transportation or equipment shall not be

used each year in any KHSAA sanctioned sport or sport-activity

during the period beginning with June 25, and going through July

9. School funds may not be expended in support of interscholastic

athletics in any KHSAA sanctioned sport during this period. These

restrictions shall not apply to postseason wrap-up activities,

celebrations and recognition events relating to a spring sports

team at a school which participated in KHSAA state championship

play in that particular sport during that particular year.

 

I do believe the Diocese of Covington extends the dead period one extra week.

Pretty sure the dead period goes until July 17th.

 

Only for fish eaters. So if she stayed at NDA she would have another week off.

She will fit in perfectly. They had a great summer playing together. They all shared the ball very well and she was VERY supportive of her new teammates (many high fives given by her to her new teammates!) She seemed very happy and excited. They were very fun to watch! They competed at a high level (yes I know, it's only summer ball) From what I know, she loved it and the girls loved playing with her.

Heard a rumor that this transfer has been denied. Anyone have insight?
