as did ours.

Brother 'participated' in all 3.

and only Varsity got a letter.

Did your Freshman and JV teams get letters?

I am not sure here since my kids did not do sports, but when I was in high school many many moons ago the JV people got a smaller letter.

It depends on where you live. Either the school or the “league“ the school plays in determines the criteria for “lettering” in any given sport.

Whats there to disagree with? If your school is hand ing out varsity letters to kids on the football team just because they made the squad they are in the minority.

Varsity players on the varsity squad. It's right in the name.

 

[progressive hunter]

So, you are against High Schools giving out letters to those who complete a season of a sport.

thats not a trophy you dumbass,,,

That doesnt mean you get a Varsity letter. Being on the Varsity Squad is the first and lowest hurdle. There are typically play time requirements, behavioral considerations, academic requirements, there's coaches discretion etc. Just making the squad doesn't equate to a letter.

Very few schools are handing out varsity letters just for making the varsity team. If they are they are undermining the significance of the letter.

This is not my experience, and my kids were in schools in 4 different states as well as this is not the way it was when I was in high school way back in the late 70s. Anyone that made the varsity team got the letter

Do you even have kids?

Winning is meaningless unless the trophy is filled with peanuts.

Not in Ohio, PA, Md, Tx, NC, Florida, Hawaii. All states where I have either had children earn varsity letters or I myself earned them. Again if your school is handing out varsity letters to kids for just making the team they are diminishing the meaning of the letter. Good luck with that.

The whole point of a varsity letter is to indicate you made the team. That is literally the name of the damn thing

You are just making shit up now.

For fuck sakes. Google Varsity Letter requirements and tell me what you find out. You routinely do stupid shit like this. You hold on to things that are easily disproven. I even gave you an out with the "it depends on where you live" comment.

What is a Varsity Letter? The High School Varsity Letter Requirements | Synonym

High school sports showcase player talent at many levels. Students playing at the highest level often have the option of being honored with a varsity letter. Qualifying for a varsity letter not only requires top sports performance, it usually includes measured academic and performance standards too.

Im sure there are schools that do what you are saying but they are the exception not the rule. Nor should they be. It does and should mean more than just making the team.

 

[progressive hunter]

you cannot complete the season if you do not make the team.

you are unreal,,,

you can make the team and not complete the season,,

so which is it,, make the team or complete a season,,,

 

[Unkotare]

Students who do not maintain their grades and stay in good standing cannot stay on my team.
