Lunatic1 Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Do the Catholic schools always play 5 games ( best 3 out of 5) and what if they are playing a public school? I just noticed it on the KHSAA scoreboard and wondered how this works. The games seem so short I wish they played that way in the public schools.

98NCCalum Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I thought everyone switched to this format a couple of years ago? Rally scoring and whatnot?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunatic1 Posted August 31, 2007 Author Share Posted August 31, 2007 Well in Public schools it is 2 out of 3....It appears that in Catholic schools it is 3 out of 5. Yes rally scoring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EQUUS GREVYI Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 KHSAA allows each school to schedule a limited number of "best of 5" matches. I believe the limit is six per year. Some of the parochial schools use this format when playing their marquee matchups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EQUUS GREVYI Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I can't find the limit on 'best 3 of 5 matches'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckman41ss Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I can't find the limit on 'best 3 of 5 matches'. I could have saved you some time because I couldn't fine anything earlier.It's one of the worst websites to try and find information.:irked: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EQUUS GREVYI Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Agreed, it's not very well organized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunatic1 Posted August 31, 2007 Author Share Posted August 31, 2007 I can't find the limit on 'best 3 of 5 matches'. You are doing better than me, I can not even find where it is discussed... It seems it would be great to get that much playing time out of every match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgpreppy Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 You are doing better than me, I can not even find where it is discussed... It seems it would be great to get that much playing time out of every match. In OH, 3 out of 5 is the normal match. Ask any St. Henry parent that got out of Oak Hills last night after a 3 game Freshman match, 3 game JV Match, and a best of 5 Varsity match that went 4 games. The players got home @ midnight. This is probably the reason to avoid 3 out of 5 games. Especially in long distance travel games. I have an idea, how about getting rid of the 20 minute warm up. St. Henry had a match against an opponent last week in which the score was 25-5 and 25-4. The warm ups almost took longer than the match. Seriously. If you include player announcements and the National anthem, pregame took longer than the match. Shorten warmups to 8 minutes, and play best out of 5. That is my rant for the day... :jump: :jump: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dlbdonn Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Leave the warmups alone . They do have a purpose that is to help the players stretch help to prevent injuries . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunatic1 Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 I think that it would be great for the smaller schools to go to best 3/5 to give the varsity more experience. Most can not play any type of club ball due to location and it would be a great way to work on the game. Most of our opponents do not even field a freshman team so this would not extend the evening too much for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dlbdonn Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Why is where you are located a hinderance in playing club ball ? Go to this website http://www.pioneervb.com for information about club teams in Kentucky . Maybe there is one close to where you live . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunatic1 Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 Already checked it out and it is about 1 hour away.. also my daughter plays Varsity Basketball and has since 7th grade so that leaves her out until March.. However she may get to participate as a practice player after Basketball ends in March. There are actually several really nice players in our local area that do both sports. Still like the 5 games idea..it appears they do that across the river in Indiana also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
