PROTEST PROCEDURES

Protests are permitted in intramurals in those rare instances when it is necessary to assure justice to a player or a team. Protests may be made on the playing of an ineligible player or when and interpretation of the rule is at fault and actually affects the result. Under no circumstances will an officials' judgment on matter of fact be ground for a protest. Evidence supporting your protest is important and it will be necessary for you to supply "proof" to support your case.

Protests concerning a rule interpretation must be made to the officials and opponents at the time of the infraction. A follow up written protest must be submitted to the Intramural Office by 3:00 p.m. the next working day after the contest. Include the exact conditions and sequence of events that prompted the situation (score, quarter, play, time, etc.).

Protests concerning player eligibility must be submitted to the Intramural Office by noon on the day of the next scheduled game. Be sure to have eyewitnesses other than teammates (i.e., officials and supervisor) plus other details that will support your case (i.e., name and student I.D. number of player).

PROTEST SOLUTION

Protest will be handled by a Protest Board which will be formed and shall consist of a minimum of four members. A representative from the protesting team, opposing team and the Intramural Office shall present their "case" to the Protest Board. The Board's ruling to accept or deny the protest and their solution shall be implemented by the Intramural Office as soon as possible.
