Repealing athletic eligibility of transfer students

SB 122 would repeal a West Virginia law requiring the State Secondary School Activities Commission (WVSSAC) to automatically allow high school transfer students to retain athletic eligibility after moving schools. This bill directly affects high school athletes who transfer between schools, as it removes a mandatory rule that previously required WVSSAC to permit their continued participation. The key provision eliminates the requirement forcing WVSSAC to modify its rules to guarantee eligibility, instead giving the commission discretion to decide whether to allow transfer students to compete. The bill does not create new eligibility rules but changes the Commission's authority to determine them.
