Athletes must be aware of their school's eligibility requirements. Those requirements are determined by the athletic organization to which their school belongs. For public schools, that is typically a statewide organization, e.g. Ohio's OHSAA. The following list provides links to several prominent athletic organizations along with links to particularly relevant sections of their sites for states from which most OVR athletes originate. Parochial schools, schools belonging to other organizations, and other special cases may have separate requirements, and requirements may also vary by grade level and/or gender. It is the responsibility of athletes, parents, and club directors to understand and comply with their schools' requirements.
