Central's New Transfer

[BMTSoulja1]

Does not matter if your parent gets a job in the district or not...you MUST live in the district to participate in varsity sports immediately at any school.  Residency is deciding factor in eligibility...bottom line.  Dubois was eligible because they lived in HJ district then moved to BC when he got that job.

How were the w Boute's able to play varsity basketball and football?  They both lived in PA and traveled every day....

It's all very simple.  If you want to be eligible to play for a particular school, contact Mr. Buddy Garrity.  He can arrange for a mailbox in any district in SETX, as well as other parts of the State, for a small fee.  It's much cheaper than tuition too...

[TxHoops]

Very large discount for any addresses within PAISD of course...

Good question.  Could have been a couple of scenarios.  If they went to Ozen for a year and played underlevels then they established residency at Ozen and were good for varsity after one year.  Another scenario is they used a false address in Beaumont if they played varsity right away.  A final scenario is that they applied for a waiver through the UIL and it was granted (which is unlikely considering UIL hardly ever approves those waivers).

key word "immediately"

so if parent gets hired during the summer but still resides in same house as always as does the child/student the student is not eligible to play varsity sports that whole year?

IF so that's ridiculous.   Child has to pay the price because parent got a new job.

A job transfer does not fall under the rule of tranferring for athletic purposes. But there are some cases in Texas where kids still had issues at their new school trying to get on varsity team.

The UIL rules say that if a parent gets a job that requires a move then the child can attend and participate in varsity sports immediately if they move to that district.  However, lots of people change jobs and don't move but, their new job is in a different school district.  If a parent changing jobs without having to move meant a kid could change schools and play varsity right away then you know what kind of Pandora's box that would open.  So you have to think of it not just in terms of coaches changing jobs but, any parent changing jobs.  

That is why everything is based on residency.  You go to school where you live.

Exactly!! Even though we have had some who "slip" thru the cracks.

How can you say exactly? Lazeek last quote was you go to school where you live. 

[whsalum]

Here's a novel idea " Play where you stay". No need for papers or waivers, next question !!

For athletic purposes only!!!

Those papers and waivers been round since the 1930's. I don't think its going to change.

It was in reference to the particular situation involving coaches changing jobs but, their kids not being eligible if they don't move. 

There are lots of schools that have open enrollment where they charge a fee and a student goes through a screening process to get in but, if that student does not live in the district then they will not be allowed to play varsity sports for one calendar year.

There are magnet schools but, that applied to kids in multiple high school districts going to a different high school outside of where they are zoned within that district because a particular magnet school offers courses they need/want for their chosen profession.

You can change from a so-called low performing school to..."higher performing academic school."

[stevenash]

But Dove, you are talking about moving from "real basketball" to a country bumpkin situation!

No, I was referencing UIL rules about residency, parents  and athletics

[5GallonBucket]

As far as open campuses go....if a child enrolled in that school his/her 8th grade year then he/she will be eligible to play varsity sports his/her 9th grade year.

We all know his boys went to Ozen for athletic purposes, but they played JV there first year just like the 7'3" kid  is going to do.

well that's terrible.   scenario:  Coach at a small school who just won state and also has a son(junior class) that played on that state team.  Coach applies for a 5A coaching job gets the job and a higher pay, but now can't coach his own son his senior year. 

I understand that rule for teachers and the Pandora box.  I am just talking about coaches.

[LouisianaHotSauce]

So if they move to HJ, it's "okay." If any where else, it's "I can't believe the UIL...."

I should have made myself clearer. I was speaking about parents in general and moving into a district. That coach SUPPOSE to live in that district in order for his kid to play varsity at his school.

Loop hole  Strange isn't it?

[LouisianaHotSauce]

Same with Nederland in football. HJ, Nederland is the "end all, be all"
