Section
Track & Field
Summary:Add 3.11.10.5 During the track season, a school may permit seventh and eighth grade students to participate in practice sessions and drills.
Rationale:This change would allow Junior High and High School track and field teams to share practice times, location and coaches. Under the current rules, schools are not able to share practice times and locations, as it could potentially violate Approved rulings and interpretations for 3.11.1-3.11.13.
Pros:Could allow Junior High and High School participants to share practice locations, times and coaches.
Cons:None.
