I have no idea what the rule is but I wanted to comment on the post. I do not believe that home schoolers should be allowed to participate on a public school sports team. The home-schooled child's family made the decision to not enroll their child in the public school system and instead home-school them. Yes, I know they pay taxes like everyone else does, blah, blah, blah, I've heard it before, but it was THEIR choice to withdraw from public school. There are city recreational leagues in which they can participate. Yes, I know, I've also heard how they want to be more competitive by being on public school teams, etc., but there are some AWESOME travel teams out there which would address that issue as well as give them public exposure for scholarships or whatever else they are looking for. I just don't think it is right. That's my opinion.
