Has anyone had experience with their son or daughter in a HS CC/ TF program with excellent coaches, but bass-ackwards administration from the AD to the school, either public or parochial)and deciding to have their athletes run for the "club" instead of the school? All of the HS meets in this particular state allow for "open' school runners, except for conference. Regional and State can run as open and qualify. The other issue is the state and for that matter the school say the athletes can not particpate in any events beyond the state meet date, meaning no FootLocker or Nike meet.
This particular school has two low 18 min and three 19 min to 20 min 5k girls as the first five. The AD and Nuns who run this school pander to the girls basketball program because "it makes money through concessions at their games."
If the team decides to go "club" will this have consequences for collegiate scholarships or will it not matter?
