SILVER ELITE
So apparently a girls high school coach has made it known juniors who get cut from varsity cannot play JV. Is this allowed? Has anyone heard of this and can anything be done?
Its entirely up to the coach. The only rule is likely that seniors cannot play JV.
That's horrible and wrong on all frontsSo apparently a girls high school coach has made it known juniors who get cut from varsity cannot play JV. Is this allowed? Has anyone heard of this and can anything be done?
CIF SDS has no rule against it. The usual practice I have seen is that seniors who have been with the program for three years already won't get cut but they may spend a lot of time on the bench. I saw one senior demoted to JV for a week for a disciplinary problem (I think the coach hoped he would quit). The JV coach made him a late sub in both games. Most coaches treat the Frosh and JV teams as feeder teams, so there is little point to put a senior down (except as noted above) but I don't know why he wouldn't want a Junior on JV where she will be a starter and supposedly devleoping into a stronger player rather than a practice and bench only player on Varsity.
