Log Mountain Boy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ive heard of it happening in baseball before. Not in basketball. I doubt there is a rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDE Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I don't think there are any rules on JV sports, unless perhaps if it's in a tournament. I've seen seniors play JV before when a small school is low in numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt there is a rule.I've seen this used many a time...Not because the player(s) were bad but to teach a lesson. Imagine the egoistic parents:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruBlu Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Well I have never seen this happen in any sport in my area that I can remember. (16th region) Therefore I just assumed that seniors couldn't play JV. If this has happened in my region recently could someone please give an example?:idunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kansas City Shuffle Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Is there any real rule that prohibits a senior from playing on the JV team? No rule in basketball, in football and soccer if 7th-8th graders are playing in the JV game they are not allowed to play against Juniors or Seniors.

coachi Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 No rule. I have seen a senior playing for the first time play JV up until January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPP Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I believe it is more of an unwritten rule of coaching conduct. I have, however, seen it happen more than a few times in the sixteenth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No rule against seniors playing JV, but there is a rule against middle school players! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
