The Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association Board of Directors made a major change to student athlete transfers on Wednesday.

In a 12-1 vote, the OSSAA approved a policy exception that will allow one free transfer for any student athlete as established eligibility at a school. Previous rules required a student athlete to sit out a year or move into the school district before eligibility was granted.

The new exception goes into effect July 1, 2024.
