(10) Athletically-Motivated Valid Change of Residence If a student completes a valid change of residence as provided in Bylaw 206.C.(1-5), a student may not be eligible to participate at the varsity level if there is evidence the move was athletically motivated or the student enrolled in that school in whole or in part for athletic reasons (See Bylaw 200; 510.B.-E.) 100 percent accurate, Logan M transferred to Mater Dei I believe as a sophomore and had to sit out his junior year. Now he had played club for the coach with Vanguard, so it was clear he followed a coach. So, unless this athlete moved from studio city to Newport Beach AND has NEVER played for Ross Sinclare EVER as part of the us national pipeline team, he should not be eligible to play. He could claim that HW was too expensive, and he could not afford it, but CIF should recognize he left the third best team for the second-best team and that is illegal. He has not filed transfer paperwork or NH has not sent it into CIF as of yet see link below. so maybe he is just playing club and taking the HS season off. keep an eye on this link cifss.org/transfers/

Thanks. I'm not saying it's not technically true. It just seems that the loophole potential is quite large.

Yes, however the risk is quite high. CIF will investigate and I don't think they will like what they find. If I were my high school team, unfortunately I would rather not bring a transfer with baggage to my program at the risk of anonymous reports to CIF costing my team its season and potentially me, my job and reputation. It is not worth it to the rest of my team or my future teams. It sucks that some mistakes people make harm their future but that is how society works. I just heard about another hazing incident at a central section school. 2-3 kids kicked off the water polo team for hazing a freshman. None of them national team pipeline players so not much to talk about, they just miss their senior year of water polo.
