It is time to revisit and re-think what effects the proportionality rule is having based on current facts, not facts that are old. Presently there are 35 high school programs for every college wrestling program. According to the NCAA, presently the total number of college sports programs for men is 7,796 whereas the total number of college sports programs for women is 8,315. According to the NCAA, presently the total number of sports offered to men to participate in is 19 whereas the total number of sports offered to women to participate in is 26. Since 1992 over 350 men's teams have been eliminated.
Presently females have more scholarships than do men in all counterpart sports.
For example in track women have 18 scholarships for the team whereas men have 12.5. Whether you intend it to or not, the existence of a proportionality part leads to reverse discrimination. One last thought to keep in mind. Let's say my son and daughter are both pretty good soccer players or cheerleaders in a few years. Both would like to pursue either one of these activities in college at an out of state school that at that my wife and I can't afford to send them to without a scholarship.
