A Petition - is a very powerful tool for those of you who want to add a female program at your local school or district. (I should have done one of these)

What it does is document the unfullfilled desire of the underrepresented females. It leads to an almost automatic failure of prong three, for the district or school. (if they do not add the sport, if they do - GREAT)

If you want to add a sport get signatures, keep copies, and pass other copies to the AD, Title IX co ordinator for the district, and whomever else you feel needs to get one.

If you are trying to add an obscure sport, it will be, the correct first step. You would have to then prove they have someone, or a place to play. Since the SCHSL will let a team play almost anyone during the regular season, that makes it a little easier. (read you can play college freshman teams, textile teams, and thus club teams)
