A transfer student who has not participated in school-sponsored activities on or after the official start date of that sport season may seek to immediately join a team, provided the roster has not reached the identified maximum size and the coach determines that the student has the requisite skill and ability to participate.
 

Continue Participating for Previous Public School.

• During the period of participation in the activity, the student continues to meet FHSAA eligibility requirements; and
• The student continues to meet the same standards of acceptance, behavior, and performance which are required of other students participating in the activity, except for enrollment requirements at the school at which the student participates; and
• The parents of the student participating in the activity provide for transportation of the student to and from the school at which the student participates; and
• The student must be registered with the FHSAA Office as a non-traditional student.
