Wildcats1980 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 It’s been brought to my attention, parents have found a new loop hole with getting their kids eligible to play in district that they don’t live in. These parents are filing for divorce and claiming the students are living in their new district with one of their parents. I know of two players that are currently do this. The misshsaa has told both school’s complaining that they don’t investigate cases involving a divorce. In both cases I know about these kids are living with finds during the week. Heck the parents still live together and come to the games together. Anyone else heard of this happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of Darkness Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Actually saw this happen about 4 years ago. Parents divorced & got custody agreements to allow kids to compete at 2 different schools. Then as soon as both were done with HS, they got remarried. Crazy stuff!!!!

Bulldogs4 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 3 hours ago, TheAnswer said: Some people care more about winning than doing right. This is correct. It is absolutely asinine that parents would divorce just so their child could play ball for a different school. What a fine example they showing their children about the most important Sacrament there is in life. The whole basis of our life existence and the family unit is based on a loving relationship between a man and a woman who are MARRIED. The MHSAA is not the joke here. It is the parents who stoop to such a level that are the joke. Leaves me shaking my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 man, i know of several who have done this for basketball or baseball in north MS. nothing new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagleman1228 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 If it’s legal record then MHSAA can’t do anything about it. Civil court from that point on. Parents would need to get drivers licenses and utilities updated to make it legal. Homestead as well if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
