So there was no place else for this girl to play basketball? It had to be the school’s boy’s team?

I need more info here.

The girls team was disbanded last school year.

But, aside from that, this is a private, though parochial, school. She can go to public schools.............

Yep good point. There are so many places to play recreational or competitive sports. Is there now a constitutional right to have a girls basketball team in a school???? What exactly is their legal issue here????

So go to a school with girls basketball. The world doesn’t revolve around you.

Yeah, does she not have any local leagues or YM(W?)CA leagues around?

I mean, I understand staying at your school but one can still usually get into other leagues.

Yes there was no girls team it was “disbanded last school year”

until that circumstance it was reasonable to ask to play on the boys team but suing wasn’t necessary...

The school should have brought back the girls team

or made a mixed team

or disbanded the boys team also

Q: Why was the girls team disbanded

about the expelling...if this is an ongoing case maybe the girls were disruptive ...
