UIL Eligibility Question

I strongly recommend going straight to the UIL with the question. They have always been good about answering questions I sent them.

I'm certainly not an expert, but if he's not leaving a UIL program, and especially if he's moving into the school's boundaries, he should be eligible. Has he always been home schooled, or was it just for a short time?

There was a Lubbock kid a few years ago who's dad got cross ways with the high school coach prior to his Sr. season. They were going to move to a nearby town to try to get eligible, but the coach and/or athletic director of the school he was leaving wouldn't sign the release. It was determined that the change was for athletic purposes and he could not become eligible anywhere else. He played his Sr. year at a private school.

This past year, two different kids moved away from our district to nearby communities, but left on good terms, and they were both eligible to play.

In this particular case he has ALWAYS been home schooled.

If parents live together they both must move and live in the new district as well. If they are divorced, he must get a waiver from U.I.L. as well as get approved by the new district exec. comm. PAPF form must be filled out and turned in for approval, even though he's not coming from a former district.
