"MYTH
Homeschoolers can't play on public-school sports team.

 REALITY
Homeschoolers can play on those teams. Florida passed the Craig Dickinson Act in 1997, which allows homeschoolers to participate in sports programs for public and private schools. (This provision is the same that gave Tim Tebow the opportunity to play high school sports before playing for the University of Florida.) However, before planning for your child to try out for a public school team, it's wise to meet with the school's athletic administrators to clarify any possible misunderstandings." (FPEA)
