The Supreme Court, without comment, upheld the UIL rule banning public high school students in Texas from varsity athletics if they attend football or basketball camps. The decision aligns with the 5th U.S. Circuit ruling that parents lack a constitutional right to send children to summer athletic camps and that students have no right to attend them.
