How does the OHSAA adoption of bowling as an interscholastic sport affect a team s regular season? For example, can a school participate in a contest with a non-interscholastic team?
A. The OHSAA does not determine conference affiliation or which teams a school will compete against. OHSAA sports regulations prohibit more than 22 contests in a regular season. A school-sponsored team may bowl against a non-school sponsored team provided the non-school sponsored team is in compliance with the playing rules of the OHSAA. Bylaw 9-Contests Requiring Special Attention- in the OHSAA Handbook addresses contests with non-interscholastic teams.
