SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Boys Varsity Soccer Eligibility

High shcool is where you go to learn, to be educated. Sports are a side note to that. The rule states that you have 8 semesters(or 4 years) to complete that eligibility. If you have to take a year off from sports to improve grades so be it, you lose a year of eligibility. Not playing is the result of not making the grade. Why should he be an exception? Grades first! He and his guardians choose to take a year for grades, well, that is a year he loses. If the high school league lets him play then they might as well let all kids, passing or not, good grades or bad, participate in the athletic programs or give them an extra year. Does this sound right? No. Sorry Arroyo, you used your time, its not punishment but a rule.

Dick weed and ***** cat. I'm smelling a ban here.

I will tell you what Danny you sure are gaining firends fast here.
\First you come on this board w/ your Vinnie jones wit then want everyone to support your cause? The rule is the rule deal with it.

Keyzer,
He can't help it. Couldn't get on Springer so he's bringing it to scsoccer.

Something has been bugging me....What kid does better academically in public school rather than private? and Did this private school not have a team? Did he not play on it? Why as a senior has he not signed yet? If its his grades then maybe he needs to take the time off to improve them. I don't know....

So we are basically gaining all the evidence we need of the situation from Danny Meehan himself. Apparently the reason he did not play his year at private school is because he was ineligible. Therefore if he were eligible he would have played. Does this mean that if someone is declared ineligible in a Columbia school and later moves to a Greenville school to repeat that grade that they should be allowed an extra year of eligibility? Really there is no way around it, he had bad grades, was declared in eligible and then repeated the grade. There is no exception when you declare yourself ineligible do to bad grades. If his grades were good in private school then this wouldn't be a question because he would have already played 4 years.

All hail Chuck Norris!

I asked a question. Somebody better answer, my foot is begining to twitch!

Im sure someone will give you a very polite answer later this evening.

To late, I just roundhoused Rock Hill and now it is more like Pebble Beach! No one will play!
