The bill amends section 1006.15 of the Florida Statutes to revise the criteria for private school students participating in interscholastic and intrascholastic extracurricular sports at Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA) member schools. It allows private school students to participate in sports at member public and private schools if their own school is either not a member of the FHSAA or is a member but does not offer the desired sport. Additionally, the bill establishes that private school students must meet guidelines set by the FHSAA and the district school board, including a registration deadline for participation.

Significantly, the bill removes the previous limitation that only non-FHSAA member private school students could participate, as well as the restriction that only students from private schools with 200 students or fewer were eligible. It also mandates that any private school wishing to participate must provide student records upon request by the FHSAA. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
