STUDENT ATHLETE-TRANSFER RULES

Summary

The bill changes the state’s interscholastic athletics rules so that a student‑athlete in grades 9‑12 can move to a new school and play immediately, provided the principals of both schools give written consent. If the transfer happens after the sport’s season has begun, the athlete cannot compete in that sport for the rest of the school year. The receiving school must also honor any ineligibility period that would have applied at the original school, up to 365 days.
