a quick question concerning rules, regulations and policies of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association

 

 

Q: If a student-athlete or a coach is ejected from a contest, they have to serve a suspension from contests.  Is there anything else they must do?

A: The answer is yes, found in Rule 2.6.3 in the Handbook, Sportsmanship/Ejection Policy Penalties for an Ejection.

Any student-athlete or administrator who is ejected or disqualified from a contest is required to complete the NFHS Sportsmanship Course before being eligible to return to competition. There is no fee for this program.

Any coach who is ejected from a contest must take the NFHS Learning course “Teaching and Modeling Behavior” ($20 fee) course before being eligible to return to competition.  In addition, if a team has players ejected due to fighting, the head coach must take the NFHS Learning course “Teaching and Modeling Behavior” ($20 fee) course. It must be completed before coaching in the next game.
