A vote that could eliminate “athletically motivated” transfer rule gaining steam

The Orange County Register’s Steve Fryer wrote that … “The CIF-Southern Section Council on Thursday passed a proposal that aims to eliminate the wording “athletically motivated” from rules regarding athletic eligibility of transfers. The “athletically motivated” wording was incorporated at the state level in recent years to different parts of the CIF Constitution and By-Laws, the “Blue Book,” including in CIF Rule 207 regarding transfer eligibility, and in Rule 510 regarding undue influence, pre-enrollment contact and athletically motivated transfers. The L.A. times’ Eric Sondheimer wrote if the changes are implemented … There’s a good chance for some major changes taking place in CIF transfer rules that would go into effect this fall. A proposal is expected to be considered by the State Federated Council in May.
