Is this a good sport for a “hook” for admissions to the T20 universities? What scholarships $$ are available?

We’re in a MoCo but our HS team practices jointly with another HS team, which makes it easier as far as coaches and practice space. It’s a great sport and all those kids who played soccer but who aren’t playing in HS can transition into ultimate pretty easily. There’s a fair amount of unmet need for sports at these huge suburban high schlools.

Different school systems often offer different sports, and not all are sanctioned by the states’ sports league like VHSL. MCPS has interscholastic bowling for example. Arlington high schools have rifle teams.

It sounds like there is already a league right?

In a whole high school, he may very well be able to find 12 players and a sponsor. It would be a good learning experience for him.

We already did - he said there is no team and likely wouldn’t be one. I thought I included that in my original post?

DC currently plays in the YULA league in Arlington for MS and really likes it. We live in Fairfax County, and checked with the future HS athletic department - they don’t have a team and have no intention or interest in establishing one. Could DC play with another HS, or is there a league he could join so that he can continue when he’s in HS?
