You can call it what ever you want. You can try and rationalize however you want. What would you call it if you had a player that was willing to cause there hs team to ff games and punish every player on his/her team because he/she doesn't want to follow the rules?
And what about those players who truly care with the second scenario I gave the most of the team only cares about the social aspect of it? Aren't they being just as selfish? How is that making the travel players any better?
The point is you can slice it anyway you want; but if you have a D1 program who's coach is in it for the stipend with girls are in it for the letter, fun while not trying to win anything is just as selfish as the travel player thinking about breaking the rules. Now if there's a D2 program that cars and girls are in it to win it BUT the travel player decides to practice with travel team, then you are correct.
You can slice it however you want, but I have seen both sides as well as a couple friends I know at another school. This rule should be banished and just for the FYI; I respect our HS coaches and the AD, I wouldn't take the chance on my dd working with her travel team during the season.
