The IHSA Legislative Commission discussed the 24 proposals during their first meeting on Monday, Nov. 2. Proposals will be further discussed at Town Meetings held in-person between Nov. 5 and 18. Among some of the more notable proposals was an increase in the non-boundary school enrollment classification multiplier from 1.65 to 2.5, an increase of the enrollment cap from 200 to 900 for private and public schools to form co-ops in single-class IHSA activities (bowling, girls flag football, boys volleyball, lacrosse, etc.), an adjustment to the ability for a student-athlete to transfer or “ping-pong” between school districts, adjustments to the classifications of boundaried and non-boundaried schools competing in the same State Final brackets in certain sports, adjustments to co-oped sports programs that exceed the 3,500 enrollment limitation to compete in the IHSA State brackets with certain exceptions and decreases in the amount of games played in the regular season in certain sports. Of the most notable By-Law amendments, one topic in particular should catch the Commission’s eye: adjustments to the ability for a student-athlete to transfer school districts based on residency of their parent or guardian. This has become a hot-button topic in recent years with the explosion of the Name-Image-Likeness (NIL) debate currently going on in college athletics. Once all the town meetings are complete, the Commission will reassemble on Monday, Nov. 23, to decide whether to submit each of the 24 proposals to a vote of the general membership. The final vote among IHSA member schools will take place between Dec. 1 and Dec. 15.
