text: My first reason is that sports is a way to bring the whole school together and have a good vibe throughout the school. The kids on the team have a since of confidence when they get on the field or court because of there students cheering them on. If you would not let certain kids play there friends will not go and the spirit of the school would go down. It is very harsh if they have a C average it does not mean they are failing, I could see if they were failing I would keep them of the team. It is very hard to turn your grades around even if it is a chance o get on the basketball team
