Common parent question:  Can a student compete in an outside sport activity in the same season as an inter-scholastic sport?  The answer is yes, it is permitted.  However, be aware of the MIAA State Association 'Loyalty to the Team' rule which says you may not miss any high school practice or game to do another outside sport. This includes all rescheduled practices, games and post season competitions.
