June 18, 2025 at 2:00 PM - CALLED BOARD OF CONTROL

Description (Appears on Agenda Report):  The state office has previously leaned on the definition of enrollment as found in the TSSAA Bylaws when processing transfer forms that are received in the summer prior to the first official date of practice for fall sports.  This prevents the state office from processing transfer forms or hardship applications until after a student has participated in three or more days of practice after the first official practice date for fall sports if the student did not finish the previous school year at their new school.  It is not uncommon for our office to receive many of these requests at this time of year, and those transfer forms sit idle until after official practice starts.  The state office would like to discuss the possibility of ruling on those transfer forms and hardship applications for fall sports as early as after the Dead Period.
