Player Eligibility: Lighthouse Christian Athletics complies with a combination of eligibility rules from
MSHSAA (Missouri State High School Activities Association) and certain specific Homeschool athletic
associations relevant to each competing sport.
Athletes who are homeschooled or attend a private school without a participating competitive sport are
eligible to play for Lighthouse Christian Athletics.
Homeschool Player Eligibility: All homeschool player participants must meet the following guidelines
(per MSHSAA Official Handbook, Section 1.1.1.e.):

● Must have been homeschooled for at least 365 consecutive days immediately preceding the
competition season.
● Private And Charter School Player Eligibility: In order to be eligible as a private school
student participants must attend a private school that does not appear on the list of MSIP-exempt
private schools.
During the sport registration process you will be asked to list the school and/or cooperative your
athlete attends. If your school or co-op appears on the list of MSIP exempt schools, or if your
athlete attends a Missouri Charter School, your athlete will not be eligible to play against
MSHSAA competition.
For the list of MSIP-exempt private schools see the list published at
https://www.lcachargers.com/ under Resources -> List of Restricted Private Schools
Private And Charter School Player Eligibility: In order to be eligible as a private school student,

individual sport to determine if your athlete will be allowed on an active roster.
NOTE: Not all sports allow MSIP-exempt private school or charter school player participation. Please
