I understand your concerns about private schools getting a broader geographical base to attract. Public schools do the same thing. We have a school in the upstate that has quite a few of their "star" players that live outside their attendance lines. They are there on special permission. Is this fair? I am not sure how I feel about that. I am sure some of the parents chose the school because of their soccer reputation, but I am also sure most of the parents just wanted their children to attend a school with a good academic record. Would they have the same winning percentage without these players or go as far as they have in state? No, but the education of the children is first and foremost.
