It's really hard to give an answer to this over the net since there are a lot of factors that would play into a decision that aren't really apparent in text.

Your best bet may to find a local team that is compromised of home schoolers or through a local group like 4H or something like that since they may be more willing to accept someone than another school based team.

I know for my team and ex-high school it's extremely difficult for us to have someone from out of the district on the team, mainly for insurance reasons etc, etc. I'd imagine that other teams based in High Schools may run into the same problem.

I'd suggest going to usfirst.org and using the team locator and contacting some of the teams in your area and just waiting to see how it all plays out.
