[quote=Anonymous]There are no title 9 equivalents for HS sports. That is a collegiate scholarship rule. High Schools are mindful of facility upgrades they are making to ensure men’s and women’s teams are treated similarly, but there is no law or rule that mandates they have the same number of participants. The biggest issue is field space in the spring which is when the VHSL plays soccer. There are already 4 soccer teams, 4 lacrosse teams and a men’s and women’s track team that utilize the rectangular stadium fields. Adding two more freshman teams would make it difficult for some schools to find game and practice time. Also is difficult to find coaches who want to do freshman sports. Football, field hockey, and volleyball all struggle to find capable and professional individuals to coach and supervise these students, which will ultimately lead to their demise. It is more likely there are no freshman sports in the future than it being expanded sadly.[/quote]
