are representing their schools and don't have 1st Amendment rights? Federal courts disagree

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/federal-court-california-high-school-football-player-can-kneel-during-anthem/

A federal court ruled this week that a California high school football player cannot be forced to stand during the playing of pregame national anthems, as the Los Angeles Times reports.

The San Pasqual Valley Unified School District in Winterhaven, California, had previously mandated that students, athletes and coaches "stand and remove hats/helmets" during the anthem, according to the report. Those requirements explicitly prohibited "kneeling, sitting or similar forms of political protest." And they were an apparent response to an incident during the 2017 season in which players from an Arizona high school used racial slurs against San Pasqual fans and students upon seeing another local high school athlete kneel during the anthem.
