EJECTIONS

 

 

Any participant, coach, or spectator who is ejected from any Intramural Sport sponsored intramural activity, regardless of the reason, is SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY from participation in all sponsored intramural sports events until a petition is turned in and reinstatement is granted by the Intramural Coordinator.

 

Individuals who have been suspended and who wish to again become eligible to participate in Intramural Sports  Program at St. Olaf must petition, in writing, to the Intramural Coordinator at the Intramural Sports Office, for a reinstatement hearing.  In order to continue in the current block, this petition MUST be turned into the Intramural Coordinator within 2 working days OR before your next scheduled game, which ever comes first.  If you fail to do so you forfeit your eligibility for the remainder of this block.  If you choose to not petition at the present time you will forfeit your current eligibility.  You will also need to petition for your reinstatement to EVER participate in the program in the future.

 

This petition (handwritten or typed) must include:

  • a description of the incident(s) leading to the ejection.
  • a rationale for actions of the participant/coach/spectator.
  • a rationale for why reinstatement should be granted.
  • a current mailing address, and local phone number, and student ID.

 

Upon receipt of the petition for reinstatement a hearing will be scheduled with the participant and the Intramural Coordinator. A supervisor and/or official(s) may also be present.  Based on the written petition and reinstatement decision will be rendered generally within one working day.  Notice of decision will be in two ways: 

1.                   Individual will be notified by phone by the Coordinator of Intramurals

2.                   A written notice of the decision will be mailed to the individual at the address given.

 

Any Intramural staff, or participant may report the name(s) of any individual(s) found playing on two teams in the same sport season. 

 

You must participate in one (1) regular season contest in order to be eligible for the playoffs.
