A bill for an act relating to student participation in non-school-sponsored athletic contests or competitions.

SF 2118 allows high school students (grades 9-12) in Iowa to participate in non-school-sponsored athletic events - including those involving college students - as "unattached competitors," meaning they cannot represent their school or wear school uniforms. The bill prohibits schools from providing any coaching, transportation, or financial support for students competing in these events. It directly affects students seeking to join outside athletic opportunities and schools that must cease supporting such participation. The law defines clear rules for student eligibility and school conduct in non-school athletic contexts.
