Texas home-school students are as close as they’ve ever been to getting the chance to compete in public school sports, despite vigorous objections from coaches and others worried about creating an uneven playing field.
House members could vote as early as today on a bill that would allow school districts and charter schools to choose whether home-schooled students can participate in academic, fine and performing arts and athletic activities regulated by the state’s governing body, the University Interscholastic League.
A companion bill is expected to be heard by the Senate’s Committee on Education in the coming week.

The competition watchdog’s decision to order FNZ to sell off fellow platform technology provider GBST has been quashed by the Competition Appeal Tribunal.
The case has been referred back to the Competition and Markets Authority so it can reconsider its view and “make a new decision”.
In December last year, FNZ submitted a notice of application to the CAT to challenge the watchdog’s ruling.
Later that month the CMA admitted it had “identified certain potential errors” in its market share calculations and asked the tribunal for the decision to be quashed so it could relook at the matter.
