[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason is to let more kids in HS play. Some schools in VA did not have enough players to field a JV team. Before this VHSL exception for 8th graders, they'd have to elimitate the entire JV team in that case- which results in fewer HS players playing since they had no team to play on if Varsity was full. Allowing an 8th grader or 2 to fill the gaps lets more HS players play. NOW it's being used as a recuriting pipeline/win at all costs so fewer HS students are playing b/c they were displaced by a middle schooler. [/quote] VHSL could have stated in the rules that "NO MS should be on the team unless there are not enough HS players on the JV team". But it does NOT, so it must thinks that some 8th graders can compete with HS kids.[/quote] That's why parents need to contact the VHSL board and explain how the rule is being used as a loophole. A link to the members was posted a few pages back. [/quote]
