[quote=Anonymous]Before you go to this meeting make sure you know that varsity sports do not get all the things you think they do. My DC plays sports all 3 seasons. There is nothing on the transcript to indicate this. At least at our school the website updating is done by team parents if they choose to. Any team can make announcements and hockey does more announcements than just about any sport. Track, which is one of the larger sports, does not give varsity letters to any athletes.  We had to buy uniforms for 2 sports (although one was a JV sport).  One sport had busses for some meets. One sport never had busses-it was all parent carpools.

What you do get is coaching, practice and field space, and MSSPAA sanctioning and state championship management, and basic uniforms in some sports.

One more thing to consider -if becomes a county sport the private schools would not be in the league. You could still play them of course, but they would be out of league play and would be in the post season championships if it's going to be a county or state championship. [/quote]
