Many of the junior high schools in IL are part of the IESA. The IESA has come out with a ruling that eliminates a rule (by-law) - The old rule was playing on a non-school team(s) in the same sport during the J.H. season in that sport was prohibited. E.G. you couldn't play on a travel/recreational softball team during the J.H. softball season.
Now, each school determines what is and what is not acceptable and the IESA does NOT get involved.
Is this good? Bad? Not a big deal?
