TO PROVIDE THAT STUDENTS IN ANY SCHOOL WITHIN THE HORRY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM WHO PARTICIPATE IN INTERSCHOLASTIC SOCCER OR AS A MEMBER OF A SCHOOL SQUAD MAY PARTICIPATE IN ORGANIZED SOCCER WHICH IS INDEPENDENT OF THE CONTROL OF THE SCHOOL UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, AND TO PROVIDE THAT A SCHOOL OR STUDENT WITHIN THE HORRY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM IS NOT INELIGIBLE FOR PARTICIPATION IN INTERSCHOLASTIC SOCCER BECAUSE OF THE PARTICIPATION OF THE STUDENT OF THE SCHOOL AS A MEMBER OF AN ORGANIZED SOCCER TEAM.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. For any school within the Horry County School System, during the sport season for soccer, a student, while a member of a school squad or team engaged in interscholastic soccer, may become a member of or participate in an organized soccer team which is independent of the school's control as long as the participation does not interfere with the scheduled week day league games of the school squad or team. A school or student within the Horry County School System is not ineligible for participation in interscholastic soccer because of participation by a student as a member of an organized soccer team, which is independent of the school's control, during the interscholastic soccer season.

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
