[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Listen the JR club parents can fight each other all they want.  The regatta rules have been clear for years (where JR has been competing) that composite crews are ineligible to compete.  The regulations, again for years, has stated: All competitors in a boat must attend the same scholastic program, defined as all participants must be students in the same school.

The fact that JR Club has been deciding on their own that the rules don't apply to them is their own fault.  Have they won races with ineligible crews due to not following the rules?     I have no idea.  They are now being asked to follow the rules (which haven't changed) which will now be enforced so no Walls kids.  There is no rule that any team has to compete in regattas.  If JR would like to keep the Walls kids and do some scrimmages with other teams they can![/quote]

No dog in this fight but seems black and white then that the team has not been following the rules and now it’s being enforced so it is what it is.

I mean seriously, did they purposely disregard the rules?  If so that is pretty problematic and speaks to a bigger issue.[/quote]

I mean, seriously, why do you care? The club was completely transparent with the assn and the assn was ok with the club. Now the assn is choosing to enforce the rule and the club is unhappily (because they actually want to have as many kids have a chance to row as possible - wow, what a terrible idea!) complying.  Pls tell us about the bigger issue someone with no dog would be so concerned about?
