After initial entry into the ninth grade, and absent a bona fide move as provided in the Residence section of this Handbook (See 1.2.9): (a) A student transferring from one member school to another member school within the same LEA must sit out 365 days for athletic participation. The LEA can create criteria for immediate athletic eligibility for transfers within the LEA. (b) A student transferring from one member school in one LEA to another member school in a different LEA must sit out two consecutive semesters, or 365 days, whichever is less, for athletic participation. NOTE: A student’s participation in cheerleading is not subject to the NCHSAA Transfer Policy. (1) By mutual agreement that the transfer is not for athletic purposes, a student’s first transfer from LEA to LEA, and absent a bona fide move, is not subject to the NCHSAA Transfer Policy. (i). Absent mutual agreement, and in consideration of the above, exceptions for immediate athletic eligibility for transfers from one LEA to a different LEA will be heard by a NCHSAA Transfer Committee. (ii) The NCHSAA Transfer Committee will be composed of the NCHSAA Executive Committee and at least one (1) non-district affiliated member school representative.

Just thought that there might be one or more "I know more than anyone" parent out there that are not happy with their child's playing time, position, or anything else, especially given their child might be recovering from a very serious injury, before they go do something really really stupid, perhaps, just perhaps, he or she should know what the rules in NC actually are.

And if someone thinks they can get past the "sit out" period, perhaps they should ask Charlotte's Myers Park High School what the penalty is for playing "ineligible" players is.
