If you are a regular here then you know what I think all of the private schools playing in the NCHSAA. Since many students who attend private schools live outside the district that public schools are restricted to. To me it is unfair for them to compete in playoffs when many players play against the school where they would be going if they were in public schools. I don't even want to argue the point today of private school students who go to private schools on scholarships.
More recently Prep schools and charter schools have come under the same scowl from me competing against public schools when they have athletes from all over competing on their athletic fields. This week at the High School OT basketball tournament in Raleigh another pressure from those wanting to compete in public schools appeared.
There is a team from Texas playing in the tournament that is a team of home schoolers. This team is from Texas and they have a player being looked at by Carolina. I have no problem with home schoolers playing athletic sports due to the fact I think all children need exercise and sports provides plenty of that.
If there is a home school team from Texas you know North Carolina can't be far having home school teams too that want to play others within the area they are from. I think all private schools, charter and you can add home school teams to the list now need to start their own leagues because they have no boundaries like public schools so everyone needs to play by the same rules. If public schools have school districts they need to play others who go by the same rules.
