Publisher Description:

When declared ineligible for interschool athletics by the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IIHSAA), some athletes fight back. They file lawsuits to regain their athletic eligibility. In response to lawsuits, the IHSAA counterattacks. It resorts to numerous legal and regulatory tactics to dissuade athlete lawsuits. Athlete lawsuits helped to liberalize IHSAA rules for athletes who transferred high schools due to family illness, divorce, or economic misfortune. A female athlete's lawsuit transformed Indiana girls' athletics years prior to the effective date of Title IX regulations prohibiting discrimination by gender in education.

In For the Good of The Game: Who Decides What's Right?, you will learn the stories of Johnell Haas, Bill and Frank Stevenson, Bill Schumaker, Warren Sturrup, and Jasmine Watson and that 1) wisdom sometimes flows up, not down; 2) the process by which decisions are made can be as important as substance, and 3), "human nature never sleeps."
