it is very possible that this can happen in high school
contracts are agreed to that could have language such as "Team A will play at Team B in 2024-2025 season ... Team B agrees to play at Team A in 2025-2026 ... failure to uphold this contract by either team will result in a payment of _______ to the injured party to cover loss of gate/concessions"
happens all the time
Hmm. . . I bet I know what “urban” area you’re referring to! Just call’em out! Lol
If I’m a parent, I’m sending my kid where they can succeed! We have several schools in the Nashville area, in basketball and football. Parents tend to send their kids where they have a better chance to grow. It’s a sacrifice for the parents, but in a lot of cases, it’s worth it. I’m not sending mine to their zoned school. No way! Lol
Also, is this assistant coach recruiting while he’s working as a ref?
I definitely agree it could sway a decision, but I don't think that is a violation. I know high schoolers aren't allowed to practice with middle schools. Seems like a lot of gray area to me, The coach sent them or did the coach at the middle school invite them?
I know several High School coaches that officiate middle school ball. One happens to be a TSSAA board of controls member.
Then why play any more games than your district games?? The problem is they've screwed kids out of 1 less high school game (those games are so limited in life), the problem is it was a scheduled game & because of potential egos it's canceled, the problem is you're setting an example to kids it's ok to back out of your word if it benefits you. You wonder why kids have no problem leaving places and transferring if it appears "best for them", the examples set before them are terrible.
