This was from last summer, July:

The committee heard a presentation from Martin, Stine and Hoxworth regarding the
Classification/Competitive Balance proposal that passed the 2024 NSAA Representative Assembly. They
shared their research, summarized their findings, and recommended a timeline for communication and
implementation. Several committee members asked questions and offered additional items for
consideration. The committee expressed their appreciation to the presenters for their leadership and
collaboration with the NSAA member schools. This information will be presented at the NSAA August 21st
Board of Directors meeting.

so are they saying that factors like free and reduce meal rate, ethnicity, poverty and movability of student population have an negative outcome of sports teams success ? and if so is this not the very same thing that has been said as a multiplier for private schools as a lack of the above student population has given them an advantage. Seems to me admitting the above rule needs added for competitive balance that you are also saying those with the lowest numbers in those areas have a competitive advantage. doesn't it ?

Here's the March minutes:

Recommendations included adding approved ruling language to bylaw 2.13.1.2; identifying the school profileindicators to be considered on an opt-down application; appointing current members of the group working oncompetitive balance to be on the NSAA Competitive Balance Committee; and implementing timelines foropt-down requests for football, other fall sports, winter sports and spring sports.Unzicker requested that the question of “Has your school opted down before?” be added to the application forthose seeking to opt-down in football.The committee discussed what the definition of competitive balance is – competing for state championships vs.the ability to compete against the opponents on a varsity schedule.The committee also discussed the legislative proposals that could affect classification.Dr. Cerny closed the meeting by summarizing that currently there is not a definitive answer regarding the number ofindicators a school must meet for an application to be accepted and that work still needs to be completed onthresholds for the indicators on the application.
