an organized team in the same sport which is independent of the school's control so long
as such participation does not conflict with the scheduled activities of the school squad or
team. No school or student shall be declared ineligible for participation in interscholastic
sports because of participation by a student as a member of an organized team in the same
sport which is independent of the school's control during the sports season for the relevant
sport.
