Player with Cerebral Palsy--A must read

[whistleone]

My question would be how much does this kid play? If he's only in for "mop up" duty, I'd be a little more inclined to let him play. If he's scheduled for regular duty, he's more than likely going to find himself on the bench for the night. Seeing as how he has little to no use of one arm, I can't imagine that he sees tons of playing time, although I have seen players with one arm do quite well in bball.

I think it's great that the decision will ultimately come from the state association. Then it's not up to the officials on any given night to have to make the decision. If the officials used the NFHS rules for the basis of their decision, the coaches/administrators could always come back with "an exception could be granted by the state association." With the ruling coming from the state association, all bases are covered.
