How does that help you get better? I don't ever recall Ra Ra taking Luke, Davari, Tony, Chase, Hunter, Kese, & Donovon, as 9th graders and playing against 8th graders in AAU. They always played up an age group except at Nationals. But I guess that's what sets apart the coaches who want to get better from those who want a win at all cost. TRUE!!!

WhereYouAt Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 I don’t think high school coaches can coach AAU with kids from their school district, regardless of age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most school districts have more than one high school... How can that not be considered recruiting in open enrollment environment where kids decide where to go to high school?

HOOPSGURU Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 There are no restrictions per TSSAA from 8th graders playing for any HS coach. Of course if the coach says come to my school that’s recruiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threeball Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 (edited) Its actually not through the summer... HS coaches can coach any 8th grade student... once the 8th grader is no longer enrolled in 8th grade (graduate from middle school) then they cannot coach them.... because they have been promoted into the next grade which be high school 9th grade..... There is one exception: if the school is one campus (6-12 or K-12) then the HS coach cannot coach 8th Graders in AAU because potentially an 8th grader could play on his HS team... The rule of the 3 players on a team (or 60%) only applies in the fall. Edited May 8, 2018 by threeball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
