The big thing everyone is missing here is they are citing TRANSFER rules and the original question was is it possible to play.

If you live in Cincinnati but go to school in Newport starting in 9th grade, you are eligible.
If you're already playing varsity ball as a high schooler, then you will have to fill out transfer paperwork and either...
a.) sit for a year
or b.) play under one of KHSAA's listed exceptions

Those are the official rules (at least as of a few years ago, I don't keep up with this stuff as much anymore).

I would wager that 95% of the forms that list the exception as a "bona fide change of residence" are not legitimate, but KHSAA doesn't have the resources to check into every single transfer so they don't check any of them.

Very well said and I agree 100%

Another big thing people forget to mention is that the khsaa never investigate a kid that sucks lol. These rules will only ever be used if a kid is really good and the rival team complains enough.
