Yeah, this is exactly what I am used to.

If you don't have school employees from a student's given school going on the trip I guess they can't attend? I would think there is some recourse here, like being able to have a heart to heart with the policy maker. But I'm not familiar with the situation.

Yeah, we don't have any school/district employees willing to travel with us so . . . I guess we lucked out policy wise

Yeah, it looks like it. If our school had that policy we wouldn't be able to attend any competitions. Probably could have managed on my previous team (we had much more district support), but it would have been a challenge.
