In some cases you could move a school down 2 or 3 classifications
and those schools may still not have a post season opportunity. I am not sure how to measure parental support: financially, time management outside of school functions and during school acitvities, available youth programs, etc. Some kids have to help out with chores on the farm or ranch, family business, taking a job during high school years at a restaurant, grocery store, work on grades/study, etc., Many factors come into play in the amount of times kids can spend on acitvities - including piano or trumpet lessons, and sport/athletic improvement opportunities. Metroplitan areas may have several off season clubs to chose from - competitive and non-competitive clubs, traveling squads, etc. Some areas within walking distance may not offer any opportunties until high school.
