Click on any Heading below to see the full message :
of Highland as our newest SIJHSAA member school. Adress: 1412 North Ninth St., 62249. Phone: 618-654-7525. Contact person: Staci LaPorta. St. Paul will participate in baseball, softball, girls' basketball, and boys' basketballl this fall.
remains as: No 2 3/4 inch barrels except on legal wooden bats. All 2 5/8 inch barrel bats(regardles of length) must meet the -3 drop rule. All bats above 30 inches in length(wooden or otherwise) must meet the -3 rule also. Bats 30 inches and less in length and with a 2 1/4 inch barrel do not have to meet the drop rule.
ANYONE whom is ejected from one of our contests(any/all sports) shall not attend the next contest as stated in our ByLaws. Their home school may impose additional penalties if it's administration wishes to do so.
We possibly receive more questions on this topic than any other and here is the answer: THE SIJHSAA SIMPLY HAS NO RULE AGAINST A MEMBER SCHOOL HOLDING TRYOUTS AND PRACTICES IN ANY OR ALL SPORTS WHENEVER THEY SO CHOOSE. See By Law ARTICLE IV, Section 2 .
The SIJHSAA does not prohibit students from participating on non-school sports teams or other sports teams at his/her school. ARTICLE 1, Section 12 of the By Laws. We leave those decisions up to the local member school.
A reminder that in each of our sports, we have a few guidelines listed in the By Laws. Providing there is nothing to the contrary in that listing or in recent mailings/postings, we follow the IHSA rules in most everything. By Laws ARTICLE 16, Section 1
By Laws ARTICLE 28, Section 2 In BASKETBALL it is 14(or less) and 3 tourneys, 16 and 2 tourneys, 18 and 1 tourney or 20 games and no tourneys. The 7th grade team has the same rule.
However, an individual 7th grade player is not restricted to the rule.....He or she is allowed to play the full schedule on both squads if the student's member school allows it.We have no such restrictions in any of the additional sports. There are NO PRACTICE dates in any of our sports.
